Joy moving plants outside

it is still kind of chilly
supposed to be 7C tonight but only briefly
i have a few plants outside already which i bought a few days ago
brought them in 2 nights ago because it was going down to 6C


i am hoping there is a flower hiding in there somewhere but it might be wishful thinking

it will likely take me 2 days to get them all up the stairs and into the backyard

i will update this post with some pics in a couple hours

took a break to eat... here is what i have brought out so far
they are very dry.... easier to bring up the stairs
some are a little too dry so i have been watering them as they get outside
the small ones i am going to put straight into the sun
the bigger plants i will put in the shade and ease into the full sun

not all the babies made it.. too infrequent watering with the small pots
one plant choked and burst out the side of the pstem
see pics below

toronto, canada

they will likely look a little hurting for a while until they put out some new growth used to the sun

also in the 2nd from last pic i can not take credit for the growth of the plant near the middle as i am only plant sitting that one for a week or so

i added a couple more pics to show how spring is a little delayed here this year as the lack of leaves on the trees shows





i plan on transplanting some plants into larger containers and maybe separating some pups today

Great collection.

Your plants did well over the winter .
I am amazed how large and lush your plants get so fast once you bring them out.

MY Lasi? had spider mite issues and is little naked right now.

thanks cincinnana,
i have been going a little plant crazy this spring!
which i shouldnt do.
i need a greenhouse more than i need more plants
should be saving toward the greenhouse
i have several unconfirmed bananas but these ones came with names:

ice cream (hopefully namwa)
black thai (bought because the seller said they were an edible type.. should have gone with my instinct)

and through a reseller but from agristarts originally:
lacatan
dwarf orinoco
dwarf green
dwarf iholena

i plan on going back soon and getting gran nain as well

the lacatan is quite tall!
my friend got a tall lacatan and fairly tall dwarf iholena
the larger iholena had better colour on the underside of the leaf than the younger one
so here is a pic of my friends iholena
