Hi all, I have just finished putting 410 new seeds in. I am trying varoius ways and thought I would share.

100 Ensete - 20 clipped - 80 normal
100 Nagensium 20 clipped - 80 normal
100 Velutina
100 Itinerans - 10 clipped - 90 normal
10 Formanosa

I soaked them all for 1 week and have put them in Vermiculite they are all in sealed plastic containers and are in my electric propergator with the lid off.

Fingers crossed I will get a few.

Thanks to all you guys for your invaluable advice, I love reading all your comments.

60 deg here today and blowing a gale.

Will keep you posted!!:

I was asking really was it chipped :ha: but you call it clipped, is this right .

We're all different, with different ways of saying things.

Having made friends with a great couple from England I can enjoy your thoughts on this. They are lovely people and some of their words I have not heard for years. It is interesting to see how wide spread the banana "nuts" are.
