Nice to hear that he is a member of this forum........................

YES.........I'm trying to find this strain of Fehi Banana to import........................some call it Karat.............

In the Youtube comments..............he said Prehistoric Banana..............that´s what I like..................rare and ancient strains..........

In my list followed by Fehi.................are a kind of Plantain from Uganda called Matoke................and Musa ingens from PNG...................

But Karat.......Musa troglodytarum.......... for sure is my favorite..................

"coconut chris" is apparently Chris Carter who had brought Fe'i plants to sell at the breadfruit festival written about at http://www.bananas.org/f2/hawaii-bre...nts-16760.html Looks like Andrew and Rob are both growing it now. :)

Chris is a really nice guy. I purchased several bananas from him at the breadfruit festival. I am planning to visit his place soon.

Im sure the members from hawaii do. how willing he is to part with some of these fehi might be the real problem.

I think the shipping from Hawaii issue is a bigger problem. I've never tried contacting someone via youtube, but I guess you could try that, or via his account on here.
