Hello all. THe descriptions about viente cohol really appeal to me, but of the one actual taste description that i read, it seems like the taste is not worth it. does anybody have actual experience with the taste of this cultivar? Also, what other short season bananas are there that taste good.

Oh, and yeah;

DOES IT REALLY GO FROM PUP TO FRUIT AS FAST AS THEY SAY?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

What's the cost to overwinter all the pups in greenhouses :)

Was very cold sensitive. First bunch was only 4-5 bananas, and took as long or longer to fruit than anything else. We'll see what 2nd gen does.
