Default new member - testing himalayan varieties

Hi,
I'm a new member; this spring I planted pups of himalayan musa species (dhussray, hajaray, helen's hybrid, malbhog).
I live in Italy in a zone 9a, I hope to have success with such plants!!!

Obviously I think not to have problems with such musas on winter...what I hope is to see in a few years fruits matured on these plants

Welcome, Carlo!

And good luck with your himalayan banana varieties. You probably will have no problems in Zone 9a with those bananas. Actually, pretty much most any banana.

Welcome aboard, Carlo78 ! It's a very friendly & info-packed site here. Have never tried Himalayan species myself, but I know there are people here who have. Best of Luck!
