Oh yes, I do grow seagrapes. They are all in pots b/c of freezes, but I have had one plant survive 24F with defoliation but NO stem dieback! It's the hardiest one I've seen so far...
I've noticed there are lots of banana addicts. That's OK, it's just like the palm addicts on the Palmtalk forum. I really like both bananas and palms, I just wish I had more room to grow them. Right now, I'm limited to a standard sized residential lot. I guess I could eliminate all the grass to plant more...
