Hey Michael, not only you, I didn't get good results with the first 100 I bought, like 4/100. Then I got a second batch and it was like 40%. I feel due to the demand of this as an ornamental, the seeds were collected over a period of time like up to a year and then only shipped to the seed dealers. I was jus talking to one of the seed dealers and he told me about the Musa sikkimensis var Red Tiger sds which were also done like this. This is another @#%##@ I am #@%$@ about! And please, Mr. Tan? Sheesh......
