Hello from Melbourne, FL
 

Hi everybody,

I've been watching the forum for a while and finally broke down and joined. :)

I'm in 9B, Melbourne, FL and I'm growing the following:
D. Cavendish
Mysore
Ice Cream
Goldfinger
Praying Hands
D. Brazilian
African Rhinohorn
Raja Puri

I picked up a free D. Red Jamaican, but I don't even think I'm going to put it in the ground as it seems to die down to the ground most winters around here from what I've heard.

Anyway, I grow a good deal of other fruiting plants, but I think bananas are my favorite. :woohoonaner:

I'm sure this forum will be very valuable and I look forward to getting involved more. If any of you are in the area and would like to exchange plants, let me know.

Thanks,
Nate

I do, in fact, have two fig varieties, although they are still in 5g pots at this point:
Brown Turkey & LSU Purple. I'll either plant them out in the spring or pot them up. I've seen some folks grow good looking figs in large pots.
