Just curious....
 
I live in Canada so guess this would be directed to Canadians or I would welcome anyone else to chime in please.

Where do you get your banana plants from or do you buy seeds?

I have looked and I can't seem to find anything too exotic in the nurseries.

Any help is greatly appreciated :moosenaner:

I have found that the best place to get bananas from is right there. Check out the classified section to see how is selling what. If you are looking for something in particular, post a wanted add. The members here tend to be very generous with what they send.

I'd say you may want a bajoo if your really commited get a cali gold, Dwarf Orinoco or Ice Cream (blue Java).. They seem to be the best to grow or maintain in cooler weather (of course you still dont want to let them freeze). :^)

Thank you I just tried to post a "wanted" bananas add and it says I need a 100 credits to do so, if anyone has any seeds or pups of either siam ruby, ice cream, any bluish leaves or yellowish please let me know. I am in Canada so I am not sure of the shipping procedure.
Thx so much,
Gail.

Hi Gail, edible nanas don't have seeds. Seeds come from the ornamental types. For the edibles mentioned you need pups.

Thanks Patty see I am learning here :o)

Ornamental nanner seeds are good too if anyone has them or the puppies of the fruities :o)

Well you have to convert some of your banana bucks to credits or buy them to do such.. :^)

Nannergirl:
If you are in Ontario & the GTA area, these nurseries have banana plants:
Sheridan Nurseries
Sheridan Nurseries : Store Locations
The one in Etobicoke-East Mississauga had a couple of different ones - Basjoos & another that I can't remember the name of.

Humber Nurseries
Contact Us
They had dwarf cavendish when I was there this Monday.

Can't remember the prices.

Hope that helps.
