Steve's garden: Growth of the Musa basjoo throughout 2012 (http://stevespeonygarden.blogspot.com/2012/10/growth-of-musa-basjoo-throughout-2012.html#more)

Here's a link to the timelapes of my musa basjoo throughout the entire year as well as links to the growth from the previous 2 years to show the entire progression.


Ryan, it looks like you have a pretty decent collection of bananas, EEs and bamboos on that link. You must have a pretty good climate for all these plants.

Looks great! Imagine what they will look like in a couple years!
