Gros Michel Banana Plants for Sale

sddarkman619 · 08-21-2012, 02:37 PM

UPDATED: 10/22/2013:

As of today I am out of Gros Michel but should have more in the spring, March 2014.
I will update this thread when I have more.
Thanks
Larry

I ordered a couple flats of Gros Michel Plants and wanted to get some of them out if anyone wants one or two.

They were transplanted over a week ago into 4" pots with good soil and have been outside since.

They receive morning sunlight for several hours, and afternoon/evening sun for several hours each day.

They are all looking good and putting out new leaves very quickly and love the outdoors.

They are TC from a USDA cultivated plant by a reputable TC company.

I am asking for 18$ for one plant, that includes shipping.

I'll throw in a second plant for 10$, for a total of 28$ for 2 if you want more than one.

I take paypal.

If you would like one, PM me and we'll get it going.

I'll only ship in the USA.

Thanks
Larry

I was the first one to order these plants and I just wanted to say that I received my 2 Gros Michel bananas from Larry in just two days. They were packed really nicely in the USPS shipping tube with their 4" pots. The pots were sealed so no soil came out. The soil was still damp and the plants looked just like in the pictures. I'm looking forward to see how fast these plants grown here in Tucson.

Thanks for the update Alex!!! Glad they made it ok!

Thanks for the great looking plants Larry! I received my two Gros Michel today and they were very well packaged. The dirt in the pot was not disturbed at all and they look exactly as they do in the pictures.

Yes they are the tall Gros Michel Plant. Yes Reliable source, Agristarts, a tissue culturing company that got theirs from USDA Growing grounds.

I've a few left, been selling them here and there. on ebay and such. their loving this heat we're having in San Diego right now....

sddarkman619 · 10-02-2012, 10:47 AM

How's everyone's Gros Michels doing? Mine survived the heat wave we had, but now we're having another one, but they are surviving just nicely.

Alex · 10-02-2012, 11:29 AM

I placed mine outside as soon as I got them. We've had some 105+ degree temperatures a few times, but the plants are in partial morning to noon sun. They are doing great and I think it's getting time to transplant them to larger pots. I moved them to a more sunny location yesterday, since we are barely reaching 100 now.

I received my plants yesterday. They look good and made the trip. Here's to hoping I can keep them nice and healthy until they bear fruit.

abjones116 · 02-21-2013, 12:10 PM

Just received my trees yesterday. Repotted and inside next to a window at the moment until the wind dies down here.

Thanks!
