Default Re: What did I REALLY get?

Might plan on digging and saving one six foot P-stem and planting out as soon as you can even if you have to protect it some. Goal is to get bloom by mid July and then you could probably cut the bananas just before first killing weather and hang in house. This banana gets huge. Pots not an option in my mind. It is as Hydroid said very tasty if you can get it to bloom there. Need sunny location with good soil and frequent fertilization for you to make it. Mine is probably 15 - 17 feet tall now with a bunch hanging.

I live in same general area as TJ and Hydroid. Both know more than me.

AS ALWAYS IMHO AND YOUR MILEAGE MAY DIFFER!!!!!!!!

Life - Some assembly required, As is no warranty, Batteries not included, Instructions shipped separately and are frequently wrong!

Kentucky Bourbon - It may not solve the problem but it helps to make it tolerable!

Statistics - Data that analyst twist to support the insane opinions of those that pay them.
