Re: Considering Buying a Texas Star
It should look and taste like an Orinoco, but may or may not be able to survive colder temps.
These posts might help... just substitute 'California Gold' for 'Texas Star' . July 20 2005 Quote:

Re: Considering Buying a Texas Star
Greg they have changed the wording in their advertisement. Two years ago they advertised a Dwarf Orinoco also known as Texas Star and California Gold. I think they are just trying to sell bananas. I have the original advertisement that I copied and posted here on the org somewhere. I will try and find it for you!

Re: Considering Buying a Texas Star
Ah Ha? I can say the Texas Star & 2 Caligolds I ordered from them last year were all a Cavendish of sorts. The Goldfinger actually might be the only thing they got right, but I doubt it.. :^)
