Growing bananas in Southern Spain
 

Hi. I'm a new member growing bananas in the Axarquia region of Andalucia, Spain.. Bananas grow extremely well here in a subtropical climate. I have growing and fruiting well Manzano or Silk. Dwarf Cavendish and Icecream but the great problem here is availability of other interesting species and the fact that suppliers in North America are reluctant to export in small quantities. Any ideas?

Hi Roger, and welcome to the board!:goteam:
Nice to hear that your 'naners are doing great in Spain. If you hang around long enough, I am sure there are members near you who will be glad to help you increase the variety of your collection. All the best!:drum:
