Default Re: Free Variegated Banana Seedlings

I don’t know who that member is but with that much land you still have to protect the stems some years if you want a head start with fruit for the next year. So that would be a huge ordeal! Pretty much anything will come back from the ground here and I’m 8a. Cavendish varieties will come back up from the ground and other varieties as well. We hit a low of 16 or 14 not positive when the who world basically got cold for the one day. I decided to wrap a bunch that would fruit this summer. A good portion of the 10-12ft stalks are starting to collapse even though they feel solid inside the wrap. Seems like anything under 19 and even 19 degrees for to many days melts stuff to the ground. Ice cream being the weakest for sure no matter how protected.

Seeds sound cool when the weather warms up to have them shipped 👍

That Florida looks easy to divide is right!
