El Manolo

Hi everybody
I'm Manuel Trinidad Y Maldonado Il Defonso Fancisco, but you guys can call me El Manolo or just Manolo :ha:
Like my name shines out I'm part Spanish but sadly I don't speak Spanish anymore cause I've lived in Belgium from birth and I never learned it.
I like hardy exotic plants, atm I have some yuccas, puyas, palms like Wash. Filifera, Robusta, Trach. Fortunei, Sabal Minor, Sabal palmetto, chamaerops Humilis cerifera, Jubea Chilensis and also 2 kinds of cycas and of course some bananas.
The bananas I have are Musa Velutina and Musella lasiocarpa. Everything that I have is grown from seed and still small cause my hobby only started a few years ago.
The above bananas are my first succes ever with bananas. I've never been able to get them to sprout so I tried some other varieties and they germinated ^^. Then I went on some other Dutch forums where I'm a member and they congratulate me, cause these species are very hard to germinate. So the easy ones don't germinate but the hard ones did after only 2 months.
Ofcourse I still have lots of seeds and bananas who are still dorment.
Anyway, I speak Dutch, English (duuuh) a little French and I understand German (Deutsch) reading but I can't speak or write it myself. It's to difficult.
So feel free to leave a comment, or go bananas.
Adios amigos
