Party Re: Hello!!!! just signed up a few days ago and wanted to say hey!!!!

Hello again everyone!!!! I really appreciate the warm welcome from everyone, what a great bunch of people you all are!!!! I showed my husband and was surprised how friendly everyone is, so thanks again!!!! We live in Florida most of the time, and travel some in the summer when it gets too hot here. But we are kind of "grounded" here, both me and my husband have our practices here ( I am an obstectrician, husband a heart surgeon), so we cant go too far for too, plus newly born babies normally dont have a scheduled birthdate We have built onto our greenhouse for it seems like ever, we just installed an indoor, piped in (plumbed) sprinker system to help with the watering, humidity, and on and on.... By the way, we give away 90% of all our pups, we have about 75 different varieties of banana plants, so soon I will be posting the ones that we will be giving away, we just want them to go to serious banana plant enthusiasts (nuts. If your local, you can come pluck it from momma yourself or we can do it for you, whatever, or if you want it shipped, we just ship them out and we ask whomever just to reimburse us for the shipping when they receive it, basically out of trust. Anyways, I will shut up now, Thanks again everyone, you are all great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome from New York! I think this is now my 6th year growing banana plants. I havent had any edible fruit left, but Im hoping for some next year! Florida is a great place for growing bananas and Im sure you can grow even more amazing plants with a greenhouse!

Good luck!
