I'm in Florida, we just had a hurricane miss hitting us, so I had to trim most of the leaves off my bananas so they didnt get caught in the wind.
When they do, would these be the first plants of yours to fruit?
Do you plan to get some other types? Have the space?

Bananas- yes, these will be the first of mine to fruit. I have only lived in a suitable climate for one year now. Glad Dennis missed you; I live in Galveston, TX and I'm afraid of this particularly active hurricane season. My neighbor has a large clump of fruiting bananas right along the fence and I've seen the size of the fruit clumps- pretty impressive. Unfortunately, the only kind of banana I have is the musa (I assume). Yesterday I passed up on getting a red banana plant, a dwarf, and some other pale whitish-green kind because I was already buying 8 new palms to accompany two others I still haven't planted. Unfortunately at this point all of my stuff is too new to have anything to trade. I'm sure someone will come around. I need to get a camera to post some pictures on this site!
Gabe15 and Bananas- any pictures?
