Hi everyone, I’m very new to growing bananas, actually it’s the first time I’ve ever grown bananas. I have 2 Blue Java and 2 Dwarf Cavendish trees planted in the garden.
A few days ago I watched a squirrel bite off the 2 foot long green tops of EVERY tree and eat it! So now every tree looks “cropped”. What advice or wisdom can you give me for this? Is that normal and has anyone else experienced that? What should I do, if anything?
Thank you again!
