You can call her or e-mail her and they'll tell you.

I am number 101! Katie said she just shipped out 49. She also said that they should move fairly quickly between now and spring.

buckeye5755 · 02-09-2010, 09:37 PM

just got a message from Katie. She said she is on #77 (I am #87), and they will resume shipping from Florida in late March.

millworkman · 02-09-2010, 11:39 PM

1,000,100,111. Am I too far back in the line? What are we talking about again?

stumpy4700 · 04-12-2010, 02:04 PM

For those on the list, Katie just e-mailed me today. My Nana is ready to be shipped. For those counting I was #92.

Hey Buckeye did you ever get yours?

Abnshrek · 04-12-2010, 06:51 PM

I'm on the list but have no clue what my number is cause I can't access my account. Will update later when I find out...

buckeye5755 · 04-12-2010, 07:54 PM

I just got the call this morning. Looks like they have quite a few to send out if they are calling at least 6 people at once. My check will be in the mail tomorrow!

Caloosamusa · 04-12-2010, 08:05 PM

Mine made it through this tough winter! Now to see how fast it will shoot! The countdown goes on.

stumpy4700 · 04-12-2010, 08:11 PM

Thanks :^) I'll get on that after I put 8 Saba's in the ground.. A man has to have his priorities :^)

Caloosamusa · 04-13-2010, 05:54 AM

Good morning Stumpy4700,

I overwintered mine by having it planted in a raised bed. It was not covered when 2 months of low 30s to low 40s as daytime lows and daytimes highs of 50s. The area is supposed to be zone 10. This year however was unusually cold and was like zone 9 weather. During this 2 month period temperatures hit29F several times.

Abnshrek · 04-13-2010, 01:22 PM

Well I can say I'm near the back of the Bus @ #128. Well I fgure its all good.. #92 is called or higher, and they were @ 60 last Sept.. So no to long to wait :^)

Abnshrek · 04-14-2010, 09:45 AM

As of this morning they are on #96 :^) & Don said it won't be long before they will be calling back so Martin and Clare best get your envelopes ready :^)

Whats the deal with this one ? Some gold banana ? LOL

stumpy4700 · 04-14-2010, 03:11 PM

Its a relatively new variety, but its alledged to fruit very quickly. If you search the old posts though, some members have had a tough time overwintering it......But we all have hope that we are the ones who can change that!!!

Well I don't own no gold banana's but I bet when my one turns into 3 you get one :^)

Dean W. · 04-14-2010, 04:08 PM

I tried ordering from them, but there is a new regulation for Texas customers. We have to have a Phyto inspection and it runs like $50.

Dean,

We could put an order in together and split the fee.

Did you have to pay this inspection fee when you ordered from bananatree or is this only from Ca?

Dave

Dean W. · 04-14-2010, 07:07 PM

No, Bananatree is out of Mass, I think.

The one there talking about here is from Florida.
