Click on the photo(which is also a safe link) to see a couple more.
Musa Basjoo after two light frosts of short duration. 1-3 hours duration my guess.
Temperature gauge stated 29 degrees

Must have been really good--sorry I missed it.

Look what the Kat dragged home!

Today was my heavy duty, 15 mile plus biking day. I went to check out the local gardening club; I like the members so I'll join. Then to discuss a change in cable services with Brighthouse; I hope I can find better. Stop at the produce market then to the bank to have a document certified. Finally I was headed off to pay my water bill; I choose to take the scenic route along Indian River.

Here in my town every now and then you see banana plants which all appear to be on private land--many seem to be abandoned--which I won't touch because I don't trespass and there's nobody to ask. Imagine my delight when I notice a mat by the river across from a house being rehabbed where it just so happened that the new owner was there directing workmen and told me to take whatever banana plants I wanted--all of them if I wanted since they only get ratty looking in the wind where they're planted.

Yippee! I plan to go back with my trowel (shovel on a bike is out I suspect) and my honking big shopping bag which holds a lot if I don't find someone from the garden club who'd like to trade transportation for some banana plants.

Paid my bill. Stopped at the store for a few things. Stopped and bought a few beers. (Where is Fall here in FL? It's seriously sweaty weather here.) And started on the final 3/4 mile of my journey.

And then there, abandoned by the side of the road, was beyond temptation. 6' or so of one man's trash and another woman's treasure. How could I get it home? Could I? I struggled but eventually balanced my trophy and walked it down the road. It's very heavy; it has at least 2 tiny pups started. And it teetered crazily all the way to my house yet wouldn't you know it balanced/posed perfectly on the kickstand for pictures?

I know what you mean it's painful going by lots and seeing them neglected and yellowing. There is one house here on the way to Walgreens which has it's backyard to the main road and is at the end of a cinderblock wall. It has a few bananas in the yard but one is alone close to the end of the fence and surrounded by high grass and weeds.

Get a folding Army shovel those were designed to be strapped to a backpack so are perfect for use on a bike.

This heat is crazy but at least it means a bit more grow time even if the days are short. Not to mention that my pool is starting to come up in temp again.

Is this how you roll?....

Kat2 · 11-07-2015, 09:19 PM

Funny that I posted that (longer clip) on another forum Halloween night which was a few days before I scored my "roadkill". To be more circumspect, I did wear a dress last Sunday pedaling to church--never again. They accept shorts and assured me of that so I'm done with donning restrictive chain grabbers.

But I do think I need a good hat for my travels--something distinctive like the Chiquita banana lady wore. Suggestions as in post a pic...
