Banana Seed Germination Forum As one of the toughest seeds in the plant kingdom to figure out the keys to germination success with, this is a forum with banana seed germination tips. Please entitle posts like "Musa balbisiana," or "Musa cheesmani," etc. People would then post a reply under that heading, sharing their germination successes (and failures), what materials and methods they used, germination percentage, etc.

Default Seed Sources - Good & Bad

Howdy everyone. I haven't been actively growing bananas yet in 2008 but that is about to change.
Does anyone have some suggestions for good old reliable seed sources or new ones that have come onto the banana radar lately?
Also does anyone know of any to stay away from?
Forgive me if there is already a recent thread like this one started.

good seed source Europalms – Cold Hardy Palms and Seeds if you order enough seeds

very bad experience S E M E N T E S** Margrit Reiner only 2 seeds germinate of 130 seeds
In a complaint I get the answer that I made something wrong. Conclusion no service old seeds. I have had good results with europalms

I use seedtrack too. I bought adenium seeds and had a 90% germination rate.
Seeds are touchy and have to be fresh. I bought same seeds from Hirt's seeds and nothing. Also bought pachypodium and nothing. When I complained
I was told I must have done something wrong. Watch Out for this one. He sells on Amazon and Ebay.
