Do you have Lowes near you? That's where I got 'em from. Well, not the local Bakersfield Lowes, but in Orange County Lowes, 160 miles away. Since I was visiting my parents in OC, this particular Lowes was on the way.

I have a home depot and lowes 75 miles from here, in St. George UT, but they are banana barren. The closest one that carries bananas is probably in Las Vegas.

For some reason, most people don't connect Utah with bananas.

I have seen bananas for sale at Lowes here in Las Vegas, but they are expensive and small.

St. George is about 5-10 degrees colder in the winter than Las Vegas. Oh, and you're right about bananas in Utah. But look at my avatar... those bananas are growing in Utah zone 6 :)

:woohoonaner: good deal. I only found one banana plant at the Lowes here and it was marked as the wrong kind of banana it was a good deal tho. Good for you

Boy I wish they sold that kinda stuff here! I kept checking Blowes and Homo Depot all summer, but they never had even a SINGLE banana :( So please realize how lucky you all are if you live in the 'banana belt' LOL.
