polinating Basjoo flowers
Hi you all...You remember i had a basjoo flower which spent all the winter time under a protection.Now that flower helps me for pollinating a second flower coming from these last weeks....Here's how to pollinate a flower Basjoo ... Reminder: when the flower bud opens this are the female flowers that appear in the first they consist of a pistil of a reservoir nectar translucent (the taste is sweet water available insect pollinators) and the draft of bananas Then the flower continues to open up while pushing on a rod serrated: there appear to male flowers with stamens and pollen and always with a small translucent container nectar ... The trouble is that when the male flowers appear to be the female flowers are already faded and pollination is not possible, we understand that pollination is possible only if a second flower has existed for a little while ... If these flowers are close enough so the bees can be successful pollination, but it is best to do it manually

Re: polinating Basjoo flowers
Hi,
I also try it in Brazil. But I must see, how I get Musa basjoo into Brazil. It's the importantest species to breed hardy fruit banana varieties. I already have sent seeds of Musa sikkimensis, velutina, ingens and Helen's Hybrid to my housekeeper to Brazil with success and without problems. And I will order seeds late July at Rarepalm Seeds and let ship them to Brazil. I also have a new website about Brazil, but still only in German, Portuguese and English versions are planned. If you do understand and speak Germen, then it will be not a problem, the link is Jardim de Banana Lucianópolis Best wishes Basjoofriend |
