Hi banana fans,
I am new since today , belgian , living in Puerto Vallarta Mexico since 1985 , basically a rarefruit colector , that's how i met our mutual friend Harvey , he will be to blame if the remaining space in my orchard will soon look like a Banana jungle.Included in the close to 300 rare /exotic fruits i am growing are a few bananas , mostly local like manzana , pear , macho , portalimon , a dark red form , lady finger and some unidentified . The pictures ( 2 ) Harvey posted a few days ago and probabbly the African Red - is this edible ? - is my last acquisition , i was convinced i bought a Musa vellutina ......... Talking about ornamental bananas , do you guys swap seeds ? Going tru the picture gallery i noticed a lucky owner of Mussella lasiocarpa !!!!! This one has been on my "want' list for a while. That's it for now , going south to banana growing country tomorrow , see if i can find something i dont have..... Luc |

Hey Ron , you didn't mention where in Holland , i usually go to Leuven and Antwerpen to visit my daughter.
Gonna start packing for the trip , it's rainy season here , lots of landslides and rain by the bucket so better be prepared. I'll be back with pictures in a few days. Luc |

Hello Luc,
Welcome to the forum and nice to here something from another Belgian too .I’m also pretty new here and started this ‘after’-summer with germination of several Musa/Ensete species. Hopefully I can get something out of it. It’s pretty amazing that you moved to Puerto Vallarta Mexico, very adventurous .In dutch: was dit een werk gerelateerde keuze? Vriendelijke groeten, Yohan |
