Hi all, just joined after finding your forum through a UK tropicals site. I'm new to growing bananas but hope to learn a lot from the experts here! I currently have a Musa Basjoo and a couple of Ensete Maurelli's and I'm trying to germinate more Maurelli's in my propogator but nothing happening yet!

Welcome aboard, mate! If you're growing bananas - or just about any tropical - this is the place to be.

Welcome from Ecuador, Mark! Best of luck with your Ensetes - here they get absolutely hunormous (think 50 feet plus), and then they bloom and you have to start all over. It's totally worth it.
