Hello, I just got a(well 2) banana plants yesterday. Went to look it up and found this site. This site is really cool, but I think I may be in trouble. I already want MORE banana plants(and my boyfriend is allergic to banana's. They will kill him, so these are more for folage plants than for getting fruit. Although I wouldn't mind friut, the animals would love it. Anyway, just wanted to say 'hi'.

Thanks

Welcome aboard. And yes....you are probably in trouble..... bananas are addicting!!!

I am most interested in edible bananas, but there are many which are ornamentals. You will find a wealth of knowledge here. Have fun

Thanks alexizhere19 Richard and browndrake. This looks like a great site. As far as getting hooked on banana plants, well, I have that problem with things, plants and animals anyways, never can have enough. I have 3 dogs, 6 cats(to be fair, most of them found me), 6 guinea pigs, 5 rats, 50 gallon fish tank, bearded dragon, mexican black kingsnake, breeding bugs for the bearded dragon, one small terrarium, 30 gallon terrarium in the works. As for plants inside and outside plants has to be in the hunderds(yikes!!) I'm probley up to about 15-20 house plants that are outside right now. And the thing is that I can't resist a nice plant if I see one I really like.

Welcome Anna, I was just down your way(driving that wonderful stretch of rt.1) yesterday. It is finally hot and humid enough for the tropics. Be careful or you'll have a whole yard full of bananas soon , it's just how it goes for a lot of us.

Welcome to the site....and welcome to the banana addiction! I hope you enjoy both. Just be careful with the latter...it gets out of hand WAY too easily. Next thing you know you'll have a jungle to go with your zoo!

Welcome Anna;
Don't give up any of Gods creatures you have. Don't give up your boyfriend if he has time for you with all those creatures. But most of all, Do Not give up on any dreams you wish to fulfill. You can work it out.
