Drummer Howdy from Austin, Texas! Excited to join :)

Hello all! I have been researching banana plants and am super stoked to add one to our yard! I was wondering if y'all have any advice as to where we should purchase one around town? Is there any good banana plant nursery in near south Austin?

Cheers,
Roxie J.

Howdy! John Reno here (L. Somerville area). Do you belong to Texas Fruiting Plant Growers on Facebook? They have meetings in Austin, Houston, and RGV. We used to go regularly (and take banana plants). I got discouraged because it seems bananas were under appreciated.

Welcome from Montgomery Texas! Glad to have you on the Org. This is a great place to learn all about bananas. You will find several organizations members selling their pups and that should help you to add or start your collection.
Again welcome & happy growing,
Darla
