Hi,
I read one PDF document which I could get by one link in this forum, that Mysore was crossed with basjoo pollen in the 1930's successfully! 10 seeds were found in 10 bunches and 5 germinated, the seedlings were growing well and viable.
Are there plants of the cross still living? If yes, where they could be found and how is the fruit quality and its taste, and are they also seedless?
I hope that anyone will answer my questions. If no plants do live more, then I will replicate this cross in Brazil. I have Musa basjoo "Sakhalin" and 2 Mysore in Brazil.
Best wishes
Joachim
