Congrats on getting her into the earth.


Thank you Steve!.....Woohoo!.... Finally, Paggi is in the ground!.....Looking forward to taste it!....

It doesn't seem too bothered by corm weevils, nematodes, and other rot issues that affect a lot of my plants.


Thank you Rob for chime in!....I know you have been growing Tu'u Ghia for a while!.....One of your favorites!....

the eindecker was the first monoplane used for warefare in ww1. the cables not only held up the wings, they warped them for faster turns. it was so devastating that the enemy grounded all their planes till they could figure a way to deal with this monster. for a time the germans ruled the sky. later Fokker helped redesign the wings. I believe he put ailerons on.

Good to hear you are off to a great start with this plant.
Keep us updated. I think I may go with this one for the next growing in the Arboretum.

Thanks master beam!.......I searched yesterday the web for the (Fokker) Eindecker Plane Fighter and I found the description of a very interesting plane used in WWI!......


That is why you are Master!.......Master Beam!.....:08:

Craig,



USDA TARS FHIA-1 Real Deal Goldfinger is a very strong and stout Nana plant!.....Grows about 6 to 8 1/2 ft before flowering, considering growing conditions!.....Mine is approx. 8 1/2 ft tall right now, at flowering!....She recovered very well from last year monster hurricane Irma.....Looks very similar to her family sibling, the SH-3640 High Noon Nana in growing characteristics, conditions, but SH-3640 High Noon grows a little bit taller!....


Thank you!.....You Arboretum is awesome!....My respect to you guys up North, zone pushers!......

What are the know differences between the US Gold Finger and the real deal Gold Finger. I know some people say that the US Gold Finger is not the real deal but what is the difference?

Bill,



I knew that was coming!......LOL.....Forum members, you guys can "chime in!"......This is just a couple of differences, it might be more......


TC Agristart FHIA-1 '"American Goldfinger" supposedly is a mutation of the original USDA TARS FHIA-1 "Real Deal" Goldfinger!.....TC FHIA-1 American Goldfinger was created by "accidentally" tissue culturing the original USDA TARS Goldfinger!....


USDA TARS FHIA-1 "Real Deal" Goldfinger flower bud has a heart shape!......It grows approx. 6 to 8 1/2 ft tall before it flowers/blooms.....Nana fruits are much bigger in size!....


TC Agristart FHIA-1 "American Goldfinger" might grow the same or a little bit taller, aprox. 8 to 10 ft before it flowers, blooms!.....Flower bud doesn't have a heart shape!.....Sometimes needs propping when flowering, blooming!......Nana fruits are smaller in size than the original USDA TARS Goldfinger!....


TC Agristart FHIA-1 "American Goldfinger" might not be the original Goldfinger but taste wise is a winner!.....You can ask forum members that are growing or tasted the TC FHIA-1 American Goldfinger, in specially my bro Ty (Tytaylor77)......It is one of his favorite Nanas!....
