Hi thank you all for your comments.

You have probablly clicked all the concerning pics of his subject which I foot-
noted thereunder for your better understanding.

I noticed in other posts that the germination ratio of Basjoo is very very low.
My friend says that is because the seeds are not sown as soon as they are
seperated from the fresh. So so called "sold seeds" germinate very very little.
I think this is why they have a complain about the germination ratio.

As for the question of fruiting time of Bajoo, it is the same as other Musas,
i.e. 30~40 leaves' time.

Natural pollination is very difficult, so manual pollination is necessary.
