What are these?

Hi,
Got them from an Asian supermarket, so I don't think they're anything rare. They're very sweet once ripen, much better than the Chiquita that's ubiquitous in Vons, Albertson's,..... I'm hoping...

Re: Thousand Fingers fruiting in Z9

Beautiful! Congrats. Mine also put out a handful of bananas, but before they could ripen, the wind toppled the plant.

Do you guys think this one is being over watered?

New leaves look fine. Then they start getting black and brown along the edges. Does not look like normal aging to me....

Re: Banana trunk is too skinny.

Is it OK to just sprinkle on the ground and water it in, or do I need to work it into the soil? I'm looking for the easy way out.:ha:

Re: Banana trunk is too skinny.

My yard is what one may refer to as "density planting" :ha:. I crammed a bunch of different plants in there. I'm not sure shading is the primary issue, I get intense full sun all the time. The...

Banana trunk is too skinny.

Some of the stalks on my bananas are not as thick as in years past, this has caused them to fall over, even with minimal wind. What caused this condition? Lack of fertilizer? Too many other trees...

Re: Dragon Fruit

Several of my DF branches are not as dark green as before (last year). What nutrients are they lacking?
Thanks,

Reds?

I picked up some "Red" bananas from Albertson's supermarket. Waited a few days for them to soften up, I found them to be very good tasting. So now I'm looking to plant one. The label indicates...

Is it possible to overwater a maurelli?

This plant is against a west facing wall. I put it there over 2 years ago. Initially, the direct sun and heat reflected off the stucco wall was too much, causing the leaves to wilt and burn. I put up...

Re: Cherimoya

Maybe you need to thin them out a bit?
I love cherimoyas, bought 18 lbs last month, so yummy. :nanadrink: I have an atemoya and a Fino de Jete cherimoya. I hand pollinate and have several small...

Re: Dwarf Orinoco (Thanks Sunfish!)

They were barely OK for eating fresh, starchy and bland. Sure they were ripe and soft, but the taste left a lot to be desired, sure look pretty though. However, once I fried them, like I do...

Re: Dwarf Orinoco (Thanks Sunfish!)

We do get a few days of frost, but this banana plant is in a protected area, no frost in this micro environment. I'll still wrap it up anyways. :bananas_b

Does this look like Mysore?

I've marked it as Mysore in my photo album, but just want to verify with the naner experts. The pseustem diameter is thinner than other types of bananas, is that a characteristic of Mysore? I was...

Re: Would thinning out the fruits make the rest bigger?

Hmm, I didn't know that better pollination (by hand) would yield larger fruits. Couple years ago, I was so excited to see the 1st flowers, and did the night pollination thing religiously. This time,...

Re: Rambutan

They don't like dry air, they don't like cold temps. They want warm air and high humidity. It's possible that your seeds were irradiated, so the plants growing from them are sterile.
