That's my plan, one of these days. Just need to get my hands on a couple of them, funds allowing. My birthday IS coming up in about a month...

I only started growing earlier this year. Right now I've got an Ice Cream, Dwarf Red, and Raja Puri. The Dwarf Red and Raja are both small plants that I got from Green Earth and are both still in pots. The Ice Cream has been in-ground for 3 months or so and is flying. Just got a pup coming up 4 days ago.

And I noticed most of you have Ae Ae, where did you all gets yours (other than eBay)? I'm getting determined to add that to my list early on.

i got mine from Stokes, all the plants i have bought from them do wonderful!!!!!

Chironex · 10-14-2008, 01:31 AM

Wonderful collection Mark!

Mark Hall · 10-15-2008, 02:42 AM

95% of them are in pots. We don't really have any specialist banana sellers in the UK now that Koba Koba has closed down.

Quite a few are from seed and some are swaps with other collectors.

All the red tape paperwork with imposts make it hard to get them too.

I have chipped in with a small group and ordered some bits from The U.S to help cut down the costs and that helps to bring a few in.

adrift · 12-15-2008, 08:28 PM

I've been busy and haven't had much time for being social and all that here. But to my tiny list I am now able to add

:

Dwarf Orinoco
Pink velutina
Dwarf Namwah

Have a safe and happy holiday season, nanna heads.

May your soil be warm, your leaves find the sun, and may your amendments be rich in potassium.
