Does anyone have any new info on this banana. I'm still trying to find info and still not much on the net.
I'm looking for hardiness and planting info. I live in zone 8. If planted, it would go in an area that is somewhat protected and could have full sun or just mid-day sun.
Chong and Bdollarbill, how do you take care of yours? Thanks for any help.

Mine came from bdollarbill, but I kept it in just dappled sunlight for a month. Then again, I live in the desert, so things are different here than they would be for you.
Good luck with yours. I would treat it like a Cavendish if I had not better info to go on.

Thanks, Scot. Can't figure out if really a new one or just a new label. Yes your area would be different than. Almost too late to plant even for here so may go in the greenhouse.
Thanks

Hello Lynn,

I just got mine from bdollarbill a little over a month ago. It's been potted and will spend a winter vacation in a temporary greenhouse, which will be heated.
