Default New Member, Las Vegas - NEED A DWARF!

My name is Jordan and I live in green valley. I just bought some banana tree seedlings online and got them but they are pretty small. Another grower recommended I find a local grower that has a bigger dwarf I could buy from another grower to get me started (he said I will probably kill the seedlings if I'm not experienced growing bananas). Anyway, I'd love to connect with other Banana growers since I'm just getting started. I would be more than happy to pay someone for a one or two footer that I could get started with... other than that any input is more than welcome! THX!

Hello, Welcome & Happy Growing.. Soil Mix that doesn't have water retaining crystals, and drains well is the key to getting T/C's to grow, and don't over water.. :^)

Perlite & Peet are good, and one fellow here believes you should just grow your banana's in a pot of old compressed grass (he does that pretty darn good too).. :^)

Ornamental bananas are grown from seed. If you want a banana plant that produces edible fruit, then you'll need to purchase a live one locally, online, or from a member here.

Okay great! I would love a namwah (is that Musa Dwarf Namwah?)... how big and what would it cost? I really appreciate all the response on this thread!

Tissue Culture Plants.. Banana's and other plants are mass produced thru this means and plants are very small. Virtually have no corm and takes a while to grow them to a decent size.. :^)
