list of other "hardy" Tropical plants growing fast from seed
Hello everybody,
i love growing bananas from seed and i will always do but i'd love to start with some other species then banana, growing very fast from seed and giving the tropical (cold resistant) bedding in my garden. For example i was thinking at gunnera, colocasia, Cyathea australis Rough Tree Fern, strelitzia, etc ( i excluded palms 'cause they usualy grow very slow) I'd love bambù too but i think it's to slow the germination from seed, isn'it? Could someone post a list of the fast growing tropical plants to start from seed? thanks and happy new years from Italy! |

I think Papayas grow relatively fast. The leaves can get huge too. THey germinate readily from the fruit too.
