I'll try 39...BTW, I live close to you, Topanga Canyon...how cold did WLA get this winter. I was down to 18.5 deg, most winters 28 deg is as low as it gets here.

I don't know exactly, we don't have a thermometer outside but according to the weather sites it was in the low 30's. Cold enough to kill just about all the leaves but not the pseudo stems. During the cold snaps I left all the garage light's on, the garden lights stayed on all night, and did some wrapping and moving. I made a temp greenhouse over my pineapples which connected to a south/east facing garage wall. Throughout the beds I mulched old banana leaves for ground warmth. I even placed large rocks in strategic places to collect warmth from the sun and release it at night.

Hopefully that won't happen again!

We have friends who just sold their home in Topanga and are packing as we speak. They live at the very top with an awesome view of Redrock and the surrounding mountains, well not for long!

We have a winner!


Let's have a big round of applause for Kenzie (Kenzie_POM)

Kenzie guessed the correct number with a guess of 68 bananas.

Way to go! Congratulations!

First there were eight bananas, then another ten, another ten, ten more, another ten, ten more, then the final ten, for a total of 68.

Here it is all boxed up and ready to ship. I stand at 6 feet two inches just to give you an idea how big it grew while the contest was running! I'm standing in front of the mother plant with fruit hanging.
