Hi all:
Nice to meet you all. Excited about being here. Not great at keeping up with postings.
I love gardening and thus the name GardenBee. It gives me peace and exercise, so every season I am growing vegetables, or salads.
My Banana plants are doing fine after they were damaged with the frost. I had brought them indoors but they suffered severely from root rot. But now they are doing beautifully. I have two varieties: The Misi Luki (butter banana as known in India), and the other I think is an ornamental type. I have enclosed two photographs of the same.
I have other fruit trees as well. My apple and peaches have been disappointing, but this year I have learned a few important aspects of pruning and applying insecticide. They are about 5 years old but have all kinds of problems. My Suwannee grape vine is doing good and gave me 15 kgs of fruit which I am currently making into wine.
So that is me.
