Default newbie here from the Philippines
hello

I am ponchit and I grow all kinds of plants specially edible plants. I live in one of the biggest banana exporting islands. My interests are on varieties other than those produced by the hundreds of hectares. I collect Philippine as well as thai varieties and would like to increase my collection by adding those outside of southeast asia. I also am interested in plantain varieties.

I hope to learn a lot from this site.

I am also subscribe to rarefruit-ph a yahoo group of fruit trees and farming enthusiasts

Welcome Ponchit,

It's nice to meet new Asian friend. I hope to learn from your knowledge and am willing to share what I know also. You will find quite a few very knowledgable growers/hobbyists here.

Michael
