![]() Hello!
I live in northern Portugal and wanted to start growing bananas outdoors. I need your help, I would start with two or three species: California Gold, D. Brazillian, Dwarf Orinoco, Orinoco, Dwarf NamWah, Texas Star, 1000Fingers, Ice cream, rajah puri. Someone has to offer or sell?!

![]() Hello.
You will find it very difficult, if not impossible, to get Texas Star or California Gold in Europe. I could be proven wrong, however. |

![]() (Finally an answer ... thanks!)
I had noticed that these species are difficult to obtain, but there are others supposedly easier. I'll keep trying, but I realized that here will be difficult ... Hope is the last to die!

![]() Good morning,
Gentlemen, I don't know if I am mistaking but i have read on this forum and on other websites that "Texas star" could be exactly a Dwarf Orinoco. In this case it is only a commercial name. Exactly like "Freddi banana" could be a common a basjoo. New name implies new buyers ! ![]() Phil

Interesting ! I have just posted a thread to evaluate this company before ordering. Have you got an ordering experience with them ? I notice many musas on their website have the same picture (for example : dwarf green and dwarf brazilian) and some have strange pictures (dwarf namwah with red PS). Phil

The prices are very high. My guess is that this company is only a reseller. My 2 cents that their musa come from Achim's bananenshop 300 km away from their location..... Hum ! Phil PS : they never answer to a mail.
