Please keep us posted if you grow them.

Re: Cold hardy banana in GA
I think all credits should go to Richard, he did all the work necessary to stop the seller.

I looked at the seller's feedbacks and there were at least two buyers in June and July. They were sold at 4 for $40 before this one.

Re: Musa California Cold Hardy

Re: Plant world seeds website
Thanks for your advice and comments. I kind of thought it doesn't have seeds.
