Re: An Update Of My Latest Nana Plants 2018!
Looking fantastic Hector. I'm interested to see how long the rachis is going to be on Thousand Fingers. Love the coral pink/red petiole on iholena tigua.
Looks like Musa Ele Ele needs adding to the collection next year😁 |

Re: An Update Of My Latest Nana Plants 2018!
as usual looking great banana doctor. found out one thing about my sumatrana's this last year, when they are small they do not do well in direct sunlight. I had to use 50 percent shade cloth which worked. I am thinking this coming year to move them in a more shady spot.

Master Beam, Thank you for the awesome advice, suggestion!.....I will keep it into consideration to find the perfect spot when transplanting Musa Sumatrana X to the ground!.....Most likely bigger Nanas will provide shade for her!.....
