Re: Dwarf Namwa 7B/8a
 

They turned out great! They weren’t completely filled, but hell it was my first bunch and it was at the end of August! I personally like them a tad bit underripe! However, when they get almost solid black on the peel they taste very sweet and have a tropical aroma to them. My described to me that it has a hint of kiwi in it. Next year will be a great year for me. I have about 5-6 that are almost at their height for fruiting and they’re different kinds. There was a another Namwa bunch that I cut on Monday and it flowered in October. Less filled out of course, but I’m gonna give them a try. 4 hands. Here are some pictures of the first bunch

Awesome! Congrats on the harvest, barely squeezed it in! Hoping for great things in my banana grove next year as well!

Yes! It’ll be neat to see your progress, especially on the praying hands! I’m obsessed with them. I bought a tiny plug from urban tropicals in June and it only grew to about 3’. It was really starting to put out some long leaves. Hopefully, next year it will take off! Here’s the one I cut on Monday.

I am not sure that I can magic my praying hands into fruiting next year, but I will definitely try lol! Right now its around two feet tall. Yours grew faster than mine, good job!

We shall see. Mine was in one of those 2” by 7” tall plastic trays. I planted it directly in the ground with sand on the bottom and mix the medium with chopped up leaves, sand, clay and black cow manure. I plan on wrapping it with straw next year. It’s potted up in the garage now. I don’t know anyone in north ga that has fruited PH, but I’m sure in south ga someone has. They have such a long cycle.
