By September these will be towering over you and you'll wonder how many other types of bananas you should start growing. If you like them big I would go with a Saba. Well I am getting carried away as you probably will in about a month.

The it may be to hot too much sun seem like it may be right a have another one of these and it gets mostly morning sun and is doing much better.


Do you think this will harden and survive? i don't want to transplant as i have a third one too that i moved and its not doing good at all.... But has started new growth so i am hopeful that it will recover!

Ps is it ok to mist during the hot days?????
