Argh, what are the plusses on winter time?You will never hear me complaining about summer time, it is never too hot for me, but boy am I grumpy if the temperature falls below 22 C or 72 F. Even though I am in Southern California, but I am already nervous that our few hours of night frost once in a while will get my bananas.
Best thing in winter: a hot fire place or oven, a warm water bottle and someone to cuddle with. Need to move to Hawaii, not just because of ideal banana climate. |

In an off year when I removed tons of adult plants I still have 4 bunches hanging and a couple ready to bloom any day now. I'm hoping for a very mild winter!
One great thing about winter is the lack of flies, fleas and mosquitoes! |
