Hi everyone,
My name is Clinton and I'm a member of Bananas.org
I'm very interested in banana plants of both ornamental and edible & heliconias.
I lives in New Zealand.
I have few ornamental banana plants I grew from seeds I imported from Frosthartepalmen.de (Owner: Markus Senger)., on early 2009.
It had been labelled as "musa ornata red flowered"
It were hardy in town called Thames whose I lived for 10 past years, and when it grow the red flower bud and the flower start to move as if it is going to hanging posture (same way the both musa mannii & musa zaifui had doing when flowering)
It is rhodochlamys musa specie.
Flower bracts shape: lanceolate (like flower of musa velutina.)
flower bracts colour: red.
Flower bracts size: exactly same as flower of musa velutina.
Leaves: glossy grass green with red rib (fade to green as leave ages) on upper side and red rib (red colour remained as leave ages) on below side.
The suckers had red pseudostems while parent plant had green pseudostem, mottled with blackish brown.
Pseudostem height: 130 c.m. (51 inches) tall, with dismeter 8 c.m. across at near soil.
No wax on leaves & pseudostem.
Number of suckers: 5.
I wondered my banana plant were musa sanguinea ??? as I know musa ornata do not really have red flowers and I do not know which of ornamental banana plants, with 100 c.m. to 140 c.m. pseudostem height, have red flower.
Musa rubinea is too short and not in cult yet.
Musa ornata "African Red" is a hybrid plant and do not set seeds and only need to be tissue cultured and divided of suckers.
Seen musa ornata had no cultivers with really red flowers.
My one flowering musa ornata had purplish pink flower.
Can you send me your photoes of musa sanguinea and musa ornata with red flowers if you have one that can set the seeds.
I need the colour photoes of flower bracts, leaves, pseudostem, suckers, flower, to match my ornamental banana plant.
I am unable to send the photoes.
:goteam: Need your help.
Also I'm looking for seeds suppliers that sell the seeds of musa zaifui, musa rosacea, musa rubinea, musa lawitiensis, violascens, musa gracilis.
I appreciate your help. :drum:
Yours Sincerely
