Hello, I have just joined Bananas.org because I have aquired some seeds
called "Redbubble" and have no idea how to plant them, they were picked
fresh today, (13Nov09) any help would be appreciated.

Welcome aboard, Topcatii :) ! Redbubble must be a local nickname. Can find no info, even using Google search. Tons of info, even a special section, here on growin nanners from seed! Lotsa banana experts who can help identify the plant, too! If ya have any questions about using the forum, just ask.

Welcome to the site. I've never heard of 'red bubble' so I'm interested to see what the plants look like and what they are! Best of luck. There are a lot of threads on seed germination in the forums (there's a whole section for it, actually). See ya around!

I believe Red Bubble is just a nick name. The seed pod is red and shaped sort of like a bubble. I have uploaded a Picture. If anyone can identify the plant let me know.
Thanks, topcatii

No prob :). When I first joined, I didnt know much about banana flowers either. The "seed pod" is the male end of the flower. The big red hood is called a bract and the yellow flowers, in the bract, are the female flowers (ovaries) that will become bananas!
Since most bananas flowers look Very much alike, we'll need a photo of the whole plant to make a positive Identification of it. P-stem color, leaf size & arrangement, leaf shape & colorations... Even colorations of the underside of the leaves... All are used to make identification.
Hope this helps :) ! Let us know when ya have a photo of the whole plant & we'll let ya know what to do next!
