I am a newbie to growing banana trees, literally got my first 4 today. Musa Basjoos. They are about 6-8" tall not counting the leaves. I am expecting a Grand Nain tree tomorrow.
I live on the gulf coast of Texas, in Corpus Christi. My soil is very sandy and add to that the extreme heat and drought conditions. I am probably crazy to try to grow banana trees!
I have a pool with several Queen Palms around it and thought it would really add to the tropical atmosphere to have some bananas as well. Plus I have to feed my banana bread habit;)
I have plenty of questions and you will be hearing a lot from me soon. Wish me luck!
