Re: What'cha got sprouting? (other plants)

Re: What's the name of this plant?

It looks nothing like oleander to me. I think it might be a species of willow.

Talking Successful Germination

1 out of 17 Musa velutina has sprouted after 25 days. :woohoonaner:This was my first attempt at germinating musa seeds. For a heat source, I placed the container they were on a top of a fishtank.

Re: Palm Hardiness

You can't be zone 9 if there's been a low of 7*F. That would put you at zone 7b.

Re: Reminder about offensive content

I found it quite disturbing to enter the site and see those pictures in the photo gallery. Picture like that should not be on a banana site. By the way, I was not the person that "complained".

Re: Question after freeze

I wouldn't be so sure about it not getting super cold again especially since it is just the beginning of winter. Usually the coldest temps come in February and sometimes March.
