I'm new to collecting Bananas. Just started this year. Also srarted adding Tropical clumping Bamboo. I am in zone 9 and have plenty of room, lots of questions, and limited funds(like most people now days). I am looking for any guidance on where to get the healthiest plants at a fair price.

Welcome, You will find all the info you need to grow naners here. As for where to get some, I recently got several from GreenEarth Inc. Banana Plants and Banana Trees

They were having a sale--plants were about $10 each--and shipping for several was only $6.95.

Live and learn.

Welcome to the site! You'll definitely learn a lot about banana plants and their cultivation if you stick around here for any length of time. The community is very kind/helpful/knowledgeable too so if you have questions, just ask!

Re: Lonie
 

Welcome! Make sure you have some fruiting bananas in your collection!

Re: Lonie
 

PS...I like that you referred to it as 'collecting bananas' cause that's exactly what it ends up as for most people! LOL.
