Default Re: Blood Leaf Bananas

Thanks for the reply, Good picture. I am attaching some more of my pictues. The cluster picture is of a group of bananas that is growing on top of the septic tank. They came back in the spring and are growing profusly I guess from the heat of the septic tank. Are the winters there warm enough for your bananas to come back or do you bring them in for the winter? I have a nephew in Dalton Ga. that can leave his bananas out all winter.
I have 2 acres of what I like to think of as a botanical garden. I love to find new plants to try. I have many gardens, topiary, and water gardens. This used to be a rural areaa but they are building 5 story apartments and condos next door. The developers wanted to buy my property but at 76 years old and I have been here 47 years and I don't want to start over with all the plants I have so I will just be a petunia in an onion patch.
You said it was good to see a Shular name. What is you connection with Shular?
