Thanks, saltydad! I lived in Odessa for a while, and visit it often. It's 220 km from Kherson. Lovely city!

Thanks everyone on your welcomes!
Currently I've got only Super Dwarf Cavendish, and I'm trying to germinate E. glaucum and R. madagascariensis (though it's not a banana). It's nearly impossible to get something other than M. basjoo here, so I'll be trying nanas from seed. Too bad they're hard to germinate, but that brings fun to it!

You have a Ravenala madagascariensis!? I love those! I have a tiny one that is maybe a foot tall right now. How big is your traveler's tree?

No, Bryan, I'm only trying to germinate them! Love them too! I hope that I'll got at least 3-4 of them germinated. They look awesome, it's a pity I can't grow them outside.

Thanks for the kind words Yuri - they are about 90cm tall and in need of repotting I think (I am in England at the moment) - I have given quite a few away - some to a Thai restaurant for their grounds and another to a Filipina friend. I have not had much luck with the other banana seeds where a few have gone mouldy and the others are doing nothing.

Good luck with your seeds - hope you see something soon!
