Re: Musa Velutina SUCCESS!!!
Congrats! I was sorry not to be able to share a pup from mine when you came down that time...but you saw how mine was doing. The drought finally did it in last year but I have another one going now, thanks to a friend. The bananas on mine would never stay pink long. I had it close to a brick wall and I think the radiant heat from the wall may have had something to do with it. Hopefully yours will stay looking nice longer for you!

Re: Musa Velutina SUCCESS!!!
Very nice! My Velutina flowered last summer making it the first banana of mine to ever bloom! Unfortunately mine didnt survive the winter, I guess it was too young to handle that kind of cold even though it was a mild winter.
