I am out of seeds. There are no more. All gone.
Who recalls this thread?
Just Back from Costa Rica
Two years ago my wife and I visited the Caribbean lowlands of south eastern Costa Rica. While there we went to a great organic fruit farm and saw some very slick black textile bananas. If you did not click the link here are the pictures:
They are out of focus, but it was dark in that forest.
Anyway, I never forgot those black banana plants. I emailed the owner and asked for him to ship some seeds if possible. He harvested the fruit dried the seeds and I got them today!!! Nearly 2 years after I had first seen the plants.
I am going to try, but I am not very good at germinating seeds, but would like to give some folks a shot at doing so. PM your address and I can send out 2 dozen seeds or so.
The only thing I ask is that you send me a plant or two to try here in coastal South Carolina if you are fortunate enough to get them to germinate and grow.
I only have a limited number of seeds and would like to keep them in the continental US.
We can update the progress on this thread.
