Dear all,

Thans for setting up this forum, it looks extremely interesting.

I am passionate gardener, particularly of botanic species of different families! I have started growing Musa by chance because I saw an amazing plant in a shop, and then I tried to grow some from a few seeds I had bought. One grew and it is magnificent, but since I mixed the labels, I do not know what it is is .... will post the picture for identification! Concerning Musa, I am really a beginner, and I hope to learn more. Because of the room available I am particularly interested in dwarf botanic species, but could maybe afford one large species in the garden? I only grow in containers unfortunately, because the house where I live is not mine, and I do not like to abandon my plants behind, and also because the ground is quite alkaline and we have late frosts.

Thank you again!

Best,

Corrado

Dear Jp,

I have added it on the map! Is it not visible?

your in zone 8 in which some bananas can survive on there own, with only little help, you could try "Gorilla gardening" til you get you own plot. Just take a few of those pups you don't know what to do with and find untended areas.
Just a thought for you!

+1... bananas pup a lot, so you should be able to plant them out and take a pup with you when you leave.
