Default Re: Arizona loves banana pudding

My edible Bananas survive without leaf burn up into the hundred degree range, I think it was 103F the other day and no issues, or course in places like Florida, the angle of the sun is going to be a bit higher, and stronger. Basjoo burns for me at that temp if not careful, and to me seems like an in between sun and shade plant, or dappled sun. The other wild species seem to do best with shade, but all my potted plants have to be slowly adapted to the sun at first in spring, or they burn. I think light shade all day is considered acceptable if grown for the appearance of the leaves, and not the fruit. In sun they can look a little tired after awhile, but they survive here.
