First of all I'd like to give a shout out to Nicolas Naranja for the educated suggestion of these newest bananas... I started all from corms supplied by none other. He got me Baloy, Raja Puri, Dwarf Namwah, Dwarf Puerto Rican Plaintain, and Williams. All very viable established corms. Thanks again Nick. I decided to update this log today because Dwarf Namwah just cracked the surface today! ALL of his corms were planted 5-3-2014!
SSDarkman619/Larry hooked-me-up once again. He got me the Goldfinger, Manzano, and Veinte Cohol. Great deal from California. Thanks Larry
The Basjoo and Maurelii were supplied by my local farmers market. I still have my friend Randy's Basjoo but I probably won't take many pictures of his anytime soon... Was the only banana that survived winter!
