Re: Fake Ice Cream, Fake California Gold:show us your TC Bananas!
I wonder if selling mis-labeled bananas is an industry-wide trend? So far, out of the 3 different sources that I acquired TC bananas from (local farmer's market, Green Earth Publishing, and Florida Hill Nursery), none of them so far have proven to sell correctly labeled plants (except maybe the raja puri that I got from the Farmer's market). I'm sure it's different when you order TC plants from members here, but the commercial companies seem to either receive mislabeled plants from their source, or they try to market one variety by labeling it with various desirable names. Seems like a perfect scheme since it's hard to prove, and judging by the traffic on this forum, there's a lot of buyers.
