It is about 5' tall and had 4 pups all about 2' tall. I figured I needed another winter project like a hole in the head and the nursery was closing in 15 minutes. I left.
The next day I drove out on my lunch to look at it again and asked the manager if he'd play "Let's Make a Deal" and he wanted to know on what plants. I took him over to the banana and he looked it over and said he'd take 75% off. Great....down to $25 bucks. As I'm standing at the checkout I see this little yellow tag sticking out of the soil about 1/4". I pull it out and the 5 gallon pot is full of Siam Ruby Bananas.
DID I DO GOOD?
