Re: Fruit...and more fruit!
 

Thank you for your answer.Sorry, I should have asked more clearly.

In Germany it´s surely not possible to grow it outside the whole year. I`m interested in Logee`s Dwarf Ladyfinger because it´s able to fruit in a container.
Do you know whether about 70 Fahrenheit (20-21 Grad Celsius) are enough during the winter season for good growth of the Dwarf Ladyfinger (as houseplant)?

Musa Rajapuri and Dwarf Cavendish are very good growing during winter here in Germany under these conditions.

Greetings from Germany

Logee's stopped selling their Dwarf Ladyfinger this winter. So...if we here want it to continue to 'get around', we will have to do it ourselves. I hope the people who have it will sell some to members here this year.

Re: Fruit...and more fruit!
 

And I hope there will be one day one of these suckers, which arrives in Germany. It´s an absolutely outstanding variety.

Re: Fruit...and more fruit!
 

Simply beautiful! Your pictures give me renewed hope and energy to see results like this someday. Since the Logee's Dwarf Ladyfinger is not being sold any longer (per Taylor's post), perhaps this would be a good one for TC'ing?

Just got back in town after being gone for 2 mo. There are alot of shredded/broken leaves and 1 1/2 ft. weeds, but also a few new bunches of fruit and a couple of new flags. Fortunately, Gustav didn't destroy any plants. I hope we are as lucky with hurricane Ike. Here's a few updated pictures:

Great pictures!

Re: Fruit...and more fruit!
 

AWESOME pics Nanaman! Thanks for showing. I couldn't take my eyes off since page one.
Can I ask what the measurements of the big pot is in first pic w/ Logees Ladyfinger? It looks as big as what I have but you say yours is 15gal? I think mine is bigger. Can't measure now - too dark out. And, did you really grow that tree in it? WOW.

Those must've been some well taken care of bananas.

Re: Fruit...and more fruit!
 

I'm sorry I did'nt respond sooner, I'm away from home so I can't measure the pot, but yes I did grow it in that pot! It fruited right at 3ft.
