![]() I recently bought several banana pups from :
https://www.lamaisondubananier.com/ Since I have been burned already several times from nurseries selling items which are not what is advertised I am curious. Has anybody got any any of their banana plants to fruit and verified it was the correct one? I can't find any feedback neither positive nor negative on this nursery other than their service. |

![]() Hi! Yes i buy from them the Musa himalayan fruit and the Musa siam ruby. They are growing well even with a bit of frost (two days this year). And specially the Musa himalayan fruit is growing very well and fast pushing new leaves even now! You can see photos on my thread. So i'm very happy and will buy again from them.

What I was asking however is if anybody got their plants to produce and verified that it was actually the variety listed. They are not a new nursery, it's strange nobody made any report of fruiting bananas. I got a 3m tall musa velutina, a mulberry illinois everbearing that bear only once, a hard shell almond tree which was supposed to have soft shell, an walter hole avocado which is not mexican type(should be mexican). Not bought from them of course. A plant may be nice and grow well, but until it produce it's impossible to know what you actually bought. |

![]() Just found this thread
Bought nothing from them yet but also tempted I bought from amazona Organics in Germany and it’s the biggest fail of my life Wasted two years to find out I didn’t get Blue Java but an what must be apple banana And when I spoke out about it they told me to shut m mouth & now want to sue me.hands down- This Chinese lady is insane beyond Ah yes first the wanted me to send back the banana (4m high) sure And all I wanted was a blue java They said they wouldn’t have sent the wrong one because they are easy to indicate at the leafs (apple has spots) both bluish powdered trunk WELL MINE CAME WITHOUT ANY LEAF AND I SHOWED THE PICTURE. So do not buy there. Mistakes can happen but this reaction is just out of this world Luis please let us know how your French experience went I really wanted a blue and will still find it one day
