'NoNo' Banana?

esmithj333 · 07-07-2022, 10:04 AM

Has anyone had any experience with the ‘NoNo’ Banana? I just came across it yesterday on the internet and thought it looked really cool. I’d like to hear more about it if anyone knows anything

That's a nice looking plant!

It sure is! I’d like to add one to my collection at some point.

I ended up getting a couple of these to see what they are like. There’s not really much information on them that I could find.

I don't know but its probably just me.. If the banana doesn't have straight green leaves its most likely prone to get burnt the hell up in full to partial sun. My take on it is I'd feed it to my pigs or goats.. unless it was an AEAE then it would be in full shade like Steve's that he eats from almost every year.. Anyway Ive seen the Florida next to an AEAE and its just a cheap knock if you ask me. Its not bout the plant it should be can you fruit it and does the fruit taste better than a cavendish.. Ordering another veinte cohol in the spring from goingbanana's while that thought is in my head.. bet I can fruit in in 2nd summer down here.. Go all you banana heads.. :^)

For those of us in the north, where fruiting a banana is a huge chore requiring no small amount of luck, or serious $$ inputs, ornament is what it is about.....so as much as I would really like it to be all about the fruit.....looks are all I've got

Landscape bananas are awesome. It's why I started growing them. I mean how many bananas can you eat anyway?

Where did you get this from? How are they doing also?

I'm curious if anyone has any new or current updates on their pink nono banana plants. There's literally just the limited research info out there, but it doesnt really go into detail on size of adult plants, fruit quality (I have seen 2 different info on fruit, edible and one saying no fruit on this one). There's now a photo circulating of the fruit, but I'm not sure it's legit.
Does anyone have any personal info they can share? I have two pups, just curious what to expect eventually.
Thanks!!
