Do you think these seeds can germinate,even if the fruits are not completely ripen?

LOL, Carlos :ha: ! I'd give the seeds a try, couldn't hurt! Another cold-hardy banana, Sikkimensis, has to have temperature changes from day-to-night in order to germinate. Dunno if Basjoo's the same way... just a thought.
Best of Luck :) !

thay are yet in the propagator...Let's see...
For having the seeds, wait a while ,and maybe my friend give me a little more...It seems there is about 10 seeds in one banana...
My friend's clump is a very ancient one and is not of Tc ,guess it's the reason why it can produce seeds...For exemple mine never have one seed...

Any results of this fresh seeds?

I was thinking that there could be some variation from the normal basjoo if you are lucky with this seeds?
