Re: Wellspring Gardens Credible?

Re: Wellspring Gardens Credible?
Weird. It says 5200K file size limit on the upload page (or 16 mb for zip files), but I just checked a photo I tried to upload (unsuccessfully) and it is only 4.48 mb. It is just a .jpg; took the photos with my cell phone.
My facebook has been deactivated for over a year now am trying to stay off of it. That is a cool name for a banana group though. |

Re: Wellspring Gardens Credible?
That is open to interpretation. I paid 23 bucks for a 2" tall TC (10 of them)that was supposed to be blue java, Instead, I got a 2" tall namwah, that they themselves sell for $10.00. So I paid 13 bucks more for every namwah they sold me as blue java. That to me, is NOT a "get what you paid for deal", but if i was worried about getting screwed out of $130 bucks, I wouldn't grow bananas at home, i would buy them at the store. To me, its the principle of selling an item you KNOW is not true to form.

Re: Wellspring Gardens Credible?
So I resized my photos to 4mp with the Windows photo app. Banana #1 has the most photos, and they are from when it flowered+made 4 tiny bananas. It wasn't an 'ideal' situation I'm sure if I took better care of it it would have made more. Bananas 2+3 I *think* are the same species, but I think they are different from #1. They ALL came from Wellspring sold as ice cream/blue java, but I bought them at different times. Would appreciate getting multiple opinions of what species I've *actually* got. Also these banana-themed emoticons are great fun!

Thats sucks you paid so much and what the hell you need 10 of them for? contact wellspring and voice the concern with them, they have some customer service (i recall getting a replacement on a passion vine that came damaged). Maybe a refund for the difference in namwa vs. blue java prices at the time?
