Awesome! I see you use bamboo poles like me. Do you use them for all the bunches or just the ones that can be seen easily?

Just the ones that lean (most of our banana plants are so thick that they do not require support).....poles for the Sabas are about 25 to 30 feet long..

I typically do not have to use them for Sabas...but this one was being pushed over by the other bananas in the matte.

Thanks Chris,

The Dwarf Red and one Dwarf Brazilian are doing great, although all they're doing are producing sword leaves. The other D Brazilian, with a severe corm cut, is not so good. But hope reigns eternal.

Thanks again,

Chong
