Hello, pics of my naners.
Due to the climate here I grow all mine inside for ornamental purposes.
Here is my jungle room: Pair of Truly Tinys and a pair of Variegated ones: A 6 pack of mystery bananas: My Ensete (older pic, it's very sick at the momen): And check out this cool iridescent effect one of my zebrina pups is doing. Don't know if it's normal or permanent but it's cool: Anyways, I've been lurking a long time and figure I'd post a hello. Last edited by old man : 09-02-2021 at 08:45 AM. |

Re: Hello, pics of my naners.
Newfoundland. I'm not sure what zone I am in. Canada and the US use different zone systems that can't be converted it seems. Doesn't get too cold here but a lot of snow. I think I am going to try some Basjoo outside next summer, all the snow should act as a good blanket.

Re: Hello, pics of my naners.
All of your "zebrina" appear to be Cavendish.

Re: Hello, pics of my naners.
Those angles tell me they're definitely truly tiny but they don't look like the Zebrina I have.
No matter what they're gorgeous, healthy plants. Here are some shots of my zebrina 20210901_171222 by William Strickland, on Flickr 20210901_171255 by William Strickland, on Flickr |

Re: Hello, pics of my naners.
The ones on the bottom left definitely look like Super Dwarf / Truly Tiny
Here are mine, Super Dwarf Cavendish on the left and Truly Tiny on the right. Mine are a lot bigger (you can compare to the lounge chair right behind) but when smaller and younger they have wine stained leaves. The Truly Tiny still has a little bit you can barely see. Both of them have several pups that are hidden with all the leaves. Some people say Super Dwarf Cavendish & Truly Tiny are the same thing, others say the real Truly Tiny is a Brazilian mutation. Even if true chances are "Truly Tiny's" sold are actually re-labeled Super Dwarf Cavendish. I'm growing both anyway
