Bananas in our gardens - Page 6

I also have an Ae Ae in the garden, here it is with a newly opened leaf. I gotta re-plant those sunflowers surrounding it. They provide some shade, but don't last very long.

Heres my Sahakalin Basjoo

nice Papaya Yug!

Hi,

finally, I`m back.

Look what I got today - two beautiful "Hua Moa" pups from bananimal. Now they have to get along with an exceptionally cold German summer...or at least the rest of it...

Jack - I've just seen your facebook posting for Ante, and that is soooo funny!

(and very true in lots of cases)

Thanks, I have about 7 in a row, but they're nothing special.

Nice mountain you have there!

Dalmatiansoap · 08-10-2011, 03:05 AM

What are they, dwarfs or regular?

NeedForSeed · 08-12-2011, 06:24 AM

Just wanted to post this picture of two sikkimensis bananas and a moso bamboo to the right. As you can see the banana to the left is much more red than the other, but they come from two different seeds which probably explains it.

These bananas are the one who have grown by far the fastest and the center one has already produced 2 pups. The bamboo has also been growing incredibly fast dispite the cooler weather and has reached 1m (planted it out when it was about 20cm).

Hi, here is an update of my garden (August 2011)

Bananas are invaded by Clerodendron Bungei

Gunnera manicata, trachycarpus fortunei, Eryngium pandanifolium,Hibiscus sino-syriacus...

same plants and hedychiums ,the small tree with white flowers is Clerodendron trichotomum

small sikkimensis

gunnera manicata (still young)

Clerodendron bungei blooming

young sabal palmetto

asplenium scolopendrium and erythrina crista galli

chamaerops humilis cerifera ?leaves are not very blue (the wax is destroyed by too much rainy days in this area)

young jubaea chilensis

unidentified banana :was given to me as an orinoco banana but seems like a cultivar of Basjoo...I remark that leaves are wery wide for the size

Musa hybrid Helen's keeps the same size for years why?

Canna indica and Brugmansia suaevolens

Thalia dealbata and colocasia jack giant

The thalia is jus beginning to bloom

two species of Tetrapanax papirifera growing together (the regular and steroidal giant)

young phoenix theophrastii

Ligularia (i don't remeber the name of the cultivar)

another sort of canna and clerodendron trichotomum

Butia and Parajubaea (certainly TvT)

beschorneria yuccoïdes completely surrounded by weeds

young beschorneria septentrionalis in ground since spring

both of my butias are blooming ,but to late in the season for having fruits

The papaya? They're about as regular as they come. (just saw this question)

Seweryn · 05-08-2012, 09:42 AM

Last weekend, about two weeks eariel than usually I planted my bananas in the garden.
Here is M. basjoo

and E. Maurelli

NeedForSeed · 05-08-2012, 12:03 PM

Nice! Did you store them dormant in a basement or something?

Seweryn · 05-08-2012, 12:49 PM

Actually I kept them indoor, spread all over the house

I had to shorten the leaves because these which grew indoor were not very wind resistant, as you know.

I have just realised I did it not the last weekend but the one before so these photos are from the last weekend of April.

wanti · 05-24-2012, 02:56 PM

Well to cut it short, my - for the moment - only banana (Basjoo) last August

the full size was abt 3m when freezing hit in Nov.

unfortunately the winter wrapping was not perfect so i had to get rid off all that remained from last year, but it sems the rhizome survived well and ...

Seweryn · 06-25-2012, 03:50 AM

Szia Wanti.

This is how my Ensete looks now, it had a bad luck this spring and couple serious stors damaged almost all leaves. Also the strong Sun has burnt gentle winter leaves.
