[La] Greetings everyone.
Hello. o/
I'm new to the banana world. I purchased my first two plants at the beginning of the year and I plan to buy a few more (currently considering Mysore and Gros Michel). I am also interested in growing fig trees (I have an LSU Purple for now, but I do plan to buy a strawberry verte) and I have a few mango seedlings that I started recently (it's amazing how fast they grow). Oh and I love pepper plants, I have a few red chili peppers and a ghost pepper plant. |

Re: [La] Greetings everyone.
Welcome to the group!
I guess I need to learn about figs. They seem to be getting more and more popular. I know nothing about them.

Re: [La] Greetings everyone.
Answer: it's easier to control spammers.
With regard to figs, you'll find a wealth of information about cultivars here: Figs 4 Fun Varietal Information This site (Bananas.org) is mostly about growing fruiting bananas. I see you are in New Orleans, Louisiana. Members HMelendez and TyTaylor can provide you with good advice and point you at other edible banana growers in your vicinity.
