Anybody know "Truly Tiny?"
Agristarts has something they are calling Musa Truly Tiny. Is this just another SDC variety or what?

Re: Anybody know "Truly Tiny?"
I have no idea, but I'd like to hear what it turns out to be! It doesn't say much on their site, and it looks like they have a new catalog, but nothing on the musa info page. Their phone number is (407) 889-8055. I'd like to hear a follow up!!

Re: Anybody know "Truly Tiny?"
Ive heard of this one and for some reason remember it possibly being like a super dwarf 'Namwah' type. However I could be getting that mixed up with a another super dwarf type, but either way it was only avaible in Europe before.

Re: Anybody know "Truly Tiny?"
I don't think they know yet. Truly Tiny grows about 1 1/2' tall, but I don't think they've gotten fruit. I was at Agri-Start last Monday, and asked about it, but Ashley couldn't say more than that. Same for Red Jewel- she didn't think it was an edible banana, but wouldn't know for a while. All of the outside adult plants had been chopped following a frost a couple weeks ago, and the thousands of tissue cultures I could see were about 2 inches tall.
One thing I found was that their availability list doesn't really match their inventory. I was able to get Kru, Red Iholene, 1000 Fingers, Double, Dwarf Brazilian, and Potogo. I wanted Praying hands, but never saw any. I was like a kid in a candy store! |

Re: Anybody know "Truly Tiny?"
Thanks! I've been looking through your gallery- lots of nice stuff. You appear to be a few crops ahead of me. All I've harvested so far are some Orinoco, but they've been enough to get my interest up, and get me to plant about a dz. types of bananas. I expect an interesting year.
