It's finally in the ground now, I kept it potted for a bit while I tested what it liked. It's been a couple months now I guess. Hope to see some soon, none yet. Great pic btw. Two awesome banana plants!

SteveW · 03-09-2008, 05:20 AM

Thanks Jarred,
I thought the bb was a big corm when I got it,but your saba blows it out of the water.Its gotta be almost twice as fat

I can't wait for the warm weather to get here so I can them all planted out,spring just can't come quick enough for me,lol

mskitty38583 · 04-28-2008, 10:39 AM

beautiful banana tree.

ryan · 04-28-2008, 12:10 PM

yup. thats some pesky bamboo in a friends back garden. the pup that was separated in the pics went to me, along with 3 other fat ones. they start really robust and tall. have a pic of the flower.... if i can dig it up...

Tropicallvr · 04-28-2008, 03:10 PM

Wow nice shot's. If you can dig it up, I'd love to see a pic of the flower!

natedogg1026 · 04-28-2008, 11:06 PM

Ryan, Beautiful plant!!!

I think the plant you are referring to as Black Hawaiian is the Ele Ele banana which is similar, but not near as black. Yours looks to be the Balbisiana to me. Any who, I dig it.

Gabe15 · 04-28-2008, 11:34 PM

There are a few different forms of 'ele 'ele, one I saw along the Hana Highway on Maui had pure black petioles and pseudostems (as far as I could tell). I couldn't really get close enough to get good pictures, but this is what I saw.

natedogg1026 · 04-28-2008, 11:45 PM

Any relation between the 2? B.B and E.E. that is?
