Hi,
I open a new thread to show you some banana trees from my garden.
My garden it's a little tropical forest with plenty of endemics (from Reunion Island) fruit trees, ferns, bamboos etc... and banana plants.
Some parts were not visited since 100 years !
I've also prepare some plants to introduce regulary into my little forest.
Here it's very difficult to have new varieties because it's forbidden to import banana plants.
So, I have to ask some friends to carry them in their luggages...and sometimes, the corm arrives in a poor condition.
Last year, I bought from Internet an AE-Ae, but, in the travel, the stem was broken (and even the meristem). So, it died !
In March, I want to try another time, because I'm fond of this banana plant !
I have a good place to it... sun and shadows and an hygrometric ambriance from 80 to 100 %
Well,
Here's the pictures...
The brasilian pomme :
