Re: Fist Year Musa Basjoo Success!!
Nice job on overwintering those! My experience is that they sort of tend to go faster the larger they get, but that has more to do with heat than anything. The hotter it gets, the faster mine have...

Re: Musa Basjoo in NW Ontario
Hopefully they will get real big for you and establish well. I would imagine you will have to really protect the corms though up there. I always thought even Basjoo were marginal for surviving...

Re: Protecting the border
I have to agree. Though I think my post reflects that agreement.
I also know, that unless one lives or works on or near the border, that we really cannot comprehend the problems we face down there...

Re: Protecting the border
Well, I dont really see my position as "conservative" or "liberal" either. To me it is more of a "National" issue, rather than a liberal / conservative issue. I look at it like this: I wouldn't go...

Re: A little tribute to the people here
I never got to see it either I dont think. Perhaps you could get a list of people who are not kill joys, and do not mind being on youtube, and remake it with the people on that list? Just a thought.

Re: Protecting the border
As a rather FAR LEFT liberal (progressive might be a better word actually) I have to say this issue does conflict me. On the one hand I strongly disagree with the racial profiling that could take...

Re: Basjoo potted?
South facing is absolutely the way to go, especially during winter. I have a fairly large red "rojo" in a pot I overwintered inside in a south window. It was about a foot when I bought it, now its...

Re: ATTN: Sago Palm growers
Is it indoors? Outdoors? Was it recently moved from an area where it got indirect light, to direct sunlight? Can you post a photo of it? I have had this happen on a couple of my Cycas Revolutas but...

Re: My bananas are zapped!
