Hi,

I plan to grow Musa basjoo in Brazil and have purchased a yard in Brazil recently. I try to fruit basjoos for the seed business and cross experiments with fruit bananas. One triploid basjoo will bear seedless fruits, they mike look like the fruits of Super Dwarf Cavendish.

Some years ago I got fruits, which are still not completely ripen, but the seeds were ripen. I sown it out and one even germinated! Now is the plant 2 years old and overwinters in my greenhouse now.

Best wishes
