View Full Version : Hello
I'm 90 miles south of Kansas City, MO. I'm into edible landscaping and grow about every fruit that will grow here. I have a 3x16 area on the west side of my house between the sidewalk and porch. I'd like to grow a couple banana trees and maybe some some tropical looking plants. I don't know it this is possible or even how much room they need. I'd prefer edible bananas. We got down to -9 last night but haven't been that cold for several years, I think. I'm open to any suggestions and advice.

Lots of the people on here live in places where it freezes and such so you're in the best place to figure out how to plant and which ones will do well.
Right now, it's freezing even here in Florida.

In your neck of the woods I'd say wait till the end of April.. I think Well Springs Gardens is the most reasonable place.. Many say Members is the place.. :^)
