Default Musa "Bluggoe"
Does anyone know if Bluggoe is the same as Orinoco or is it just very similiar? Would it be just as hardy/cool tolerant? Gabe? =) Thanks.

Bluggoe is a subgroup and a variety. When refered to as a particular variety, it should be what we know as 'Orinoco'. I can't verify the plant you are thinking about is actually 'Orinoco', but based on the same it should be. There is also 'Silver Bluggoe' which has silvery fruit skins.

Is Orinoco a reasonably easy one to germinate, or is it one of those stubborn ones? Am thinking of giving it a go from seed. But not the silver one unfortunately!

'Orinoco' does not produce seed. It can either be propagated by dividing a pup off of the mother plant or through tissue culture.
