Looking for real Blue Java Ice Cream
So, apparently what I have (and always thought was Ice Cream) may be a tall Namwah. Does anyone in the Central Florida area have a real Blue Java pup? Or can I get one at a reasonable price from anyone online?

Re: Looking for real Blue Java Ice Cream
Bryce,
I got mine from Fast Growing trees/Pam's trees. Ice Cream Banana Tree | Fast-Growing-Trees.com Paid $69.00 Have read how others did not get the correct tree from other growers. Checked my tree for red on the leaf and everything is a dark green. So I guess I am in good shape. Craig

Re: Looking for real Blue Java Ice Cream
Just curious as to why you're seeking out Ice Cream of all the kinds you could grow.

Re: Looking for real Blue Java Ice Cream
Honestly, more out of curiosity than anything else. Apparently, what I have is tall Namwa, which tastes great to me. I'm interested in comparing the Blue Java taste and also the blue fruit is pretty cool. I take it you're not impressed with Blue Java for some reason? I grow 7 or 8 other cultivars at this point and expect to have a few acres of land soon, so I'll have plenty of room.

Re: Looking for real Blue Java Ice Cream
You can see my big stand in the front corner of this pic. These came from Mark Collins around 2004. I'll get some pics of the young plants coming up right now.
