Default Re: We all have a story about how we got started, I'd love to hear yours!

I think it started for me about 15 or so years ago when during the mid -winter , cabin fever, longing for sunshine state of mind I was busy browsing the endless seed catologs and actually had winters off to do whatever(wish I did now). I bought 2 plants labeled "musa banana" from a cheap-o nursery , I believe they were zebrinas' and kept them for 5 years till I moved in to this house and immediatley got my first basjoos. At this point I was getting tired of waiting for the fruits that never came and they ended up as anuals in the garden. Wish I knew what I do now. The bases were ridiculously swollen and I bet with a little more time and care would have flowered. Live and learn.
