Default Re: Florida Hill Nursery?

Hello everyone!
I also just ordered from FHN before I read all these comments.
I guess theyre getting better considering this thread was
resurrected from heides after a year and 8 months.

The low price was a ringer and took only
3 business days after ordering to arrive.
Im a recent member if and when I get in
the groove of this hobby
I will definitely buy the real McCoys locally.
I guess this is part of the fun of banana culture.
Besides learning the ins & outs of this hobby,
the other half is trying to find out what they really are.

Coming from palm culture, some palms will produce 2 leaves a year
while the faster ones will add 2-3 feet of trunk per year.
Imagine waiting 10-15 years for some palm to finally
produce inflorence to get a positive ID is a lesson in patience.
(Climate and growing conditions also vary per location.
The closer and the more you mimic the conditions
of its original habitat the better its survivability.)
Its rare that we get this problem with palms
but I guess thats a trade off when dealing with pups and tissue culture.

Glad to be onboard and looking forward to an excellent growing season.

Cheers everyone!
