I will breed the damn things one day Ray! But first i have to get my hands on diploids and triploids with some fertility.

I've written to the NTBG. Hope they reply.

Meanwhile, I'm going through "Bounty-ful" horrors on Trinidad trying to get Musa germplasm!!

Strangely enough, Musa domestication history seems eerily like Breadfruit - only far older and far more complex. So I'm prepared for anything. Bring it on Breadfruit - I'm banana toughened!! lol!
