If you don't pay more attention to what you'r doing, and ruin a serviceable work shirt by trimming and cleaning up banana corms for shipment on it -- instead of a utility towel. Banana plant juice don't wash out, folks!!!

You can see the pstem cell divisions on a couple of stains. Sort of a naner custom tie-dye.

Bananimal that's just awesome! To stay on topic *when you see your first banana plants start throw out flags and you decide you need more banana plants, even though you had set a limit for yourself in the first place* Rules are MADE TO BE BROKEN! Mwhahahaha!

.when you go on spring break and you miss your nanas so badly, you call home ever hour just to check on them. you miss your nanas so badly you go to a nursery just to be around bananas.

When your 20X20 greenhouse that you overwinter things in has too many bananas in it for you to sell this year because they're getting too tall to haul to the farmers market or ship without chopping them totally down, and you receive another 360 via fed ex this week.
Need any bordelons or basjoo anyone for $15 each? pm me!

... when your latest and longest blog post is devoted to that prince of foods, the nanner!

Linky Linky!

Oh, and Ms.Kitty which Spanish terms did your learn? In Ecuador there's a different word for every type of banana....

You might be a banana fiend if you know all of them and which banana or banana product they refer to....

(Banano, platano, maduro, verde, orito, seda, manolito, maqueño, rojito, bananito, and the products bolone, chifle, patacone, empanadita verde, repe, and many many more)

just the simple ones, my teaches would rather teach us which latino star is on dancing with the stars instead of things we really need to know. like how to order food, and how to get directions if we are lost these things we need to learn. so after i pass this class ill be getting the rosetta stone, so i can learn how to converse with real people and not just my tv.

#536761 - When you run new sprinkler lines just for your banana plants, you're most certainly a banana fiend!

Been there, done that...last year....

Seperate drip sprayer lines for the nanners, one for the front and one for the back, on timers for the hottest part of the day.

I must be a fiend acording to #536761.

..... if when you're in the farmer's market and you see hands of a type of nanner you don't have growing, you ask the farmer if he's willing to sell you a pup....

mmmm, sweet rojitos the size of oritos....

I have some nice plants that grow fast and they are too expensive to through away. But after giving all of my friends cuttings, were can they go? I take a lot of material to nurserymen. I don't sell it, I give it away. And I get some amazing plants from those nursery people. Yesterday an orchid grower brought a C. skinneri division. Her plant was a seedling that turned out really good. I believe that I'm the only one that has a piece of it. I will try to put the picture in my gallery.
