Awesome post on your plant.

The plant looks healthy and the plant could do well as a container foliage plant in the north.:bananas_b

Why is it called High Noon?




Thank you Mike!


The name of "High Noon" has been used/designated in South Africa for the SH-3640.....It's posted in the Promusa.org SH-3640 info page.......

Re: An Update Of My Latest Nana Plants 2018!
 
great pics there hector. happy to see you got your tars goldfinger at long last.

just a suggestion, don't know if you want it or not; septic paper at the bottom of your pot. its more thin than tissue paper. roots can grow thru it. lets water runs thru it, will not hold it back. holds sand back. not biodegradable but tears easily when wet. will dry out at the holes. you can get it at home depot or lows for pennies, you can buy it by the foot. they call it nylon septic fabric. you look online and they sell it by the 1500 ft roll. but you can buy it by the ft. at the store, 10 ft. would do a hundred pots. just put down 1 layer.

Great write up and photos! Felt like I was right there. Congratulations on your new plants and excellent documentation of the source of your new FHIA-1!!!!!

Going Bananas is a great nursery. I didn't meet Kate on my visit but Don gave us the A+ treatment.

septic fabric, keeps the sand and dirt out of the drainfield.

Thanks, I haven't though of using septic fabric. I use mulch/weed barrier fabric from the garden center.
