Hey all,
OK after all my nanners were decimated by ducks (yes you read it right), I restarting my love of bananas. I just got small TC plants of Raja Puri, Orinoco (Dwarf?), and Dwarf Red. I am hoping that the Raja Puri and Orinoco really give me good growth even before it gets really warm...which brings me to my next question.
I'm south of San Diego about 2.5 miles from the ocean. As you folks from San Diego know, it takes forever to get warm around here for the nanners to take off. My question is, what types of nanners do you recommend for growing here that will not stop growing even in dec and jan. Dwarf or tall Namwah and FHIA-1 Goldfinger? other recommendations?
You can get bananas all over the place here but no one ever knows the exact name of them. I don't really want to grow a banana that is common already here in TJ so hopefully I will get some pictures of bananas that are around here to see if anyone can identify them here.
What's neat about around here is you occasionally see untended (almost like their wild) bananas blooming and fruiting.
Thank you!
