Default New to bananas.org

I am new to the forum and just wanted to say hello!

I live in England, just to the west of London and have a keen interest in growing lush and tropical style plants.

I have a few bananas inc M. Basjoo, M Sikkimensis, M Thompsonii, M. Lasiocarpa and E. Ventricosum 'maurelli'..I also have a number of seeds that I am trying to germinate but without luck!

I know a few members on the forum already but look foward to meeting and getting to know more!

With all those Musa species, you should try some hybrid edible bananas!

I'm new too, Darran. Had a question on a banana and Bill gave me some info right away that helps.
I'm excited to find this place as I am not an expert on growing bananas, just an avid gardener that likes to know what I have and how to take care of it.
Welcome to the site and hope you like it as I do.
Lynn
