Re: Yellowing leaves but pups are fine

I'd bet its just the cool temps. I have a unknown super dwarf cav.(unknown because it originated from Jamaica and fruits well in poor soil and reliably) that is doing the same thing, and it was very...

Re: *Update* Here’s my Apple Manzano plant now!

The manzano banana is pretty cold hardy, I think even more so than Orinoco.

Re: Happy Birthday Lou

Amazon. Several options, but I choose the 50 ft roll. You can cut to fit each trunk. Cost me $25. We rarely get freezes here, but it does happen every few years. Since I have a few sensitive types...

Re: Looking for Pakistan mulberry

If you have the real deal, and good soil, it will explode next year and you will be surprised by how much it gives. Super impressive crop for Florida. It does like afternoon shade for best production.

Re: Looking for Pakistan mulberry

Hey Man, another great plant to grow in Florida is the Mysore raspberry. It's amazing, fast growing; high producer. Only thing is to trim it, and it has thorns. It is worth it, if your not lazy...

Re: Do banana plants do so much better in direct sun than shade?

Also, the variety matters. In general as others mentioned lots of sun is important, but there are varieties of bananas that are under story plants. Those varieties will die if planted in direct sun,...

Apparently the seeds are not too difficult to germinate.
Interesting fact, the plant is edible.

I gave it a 5 due to it tasting good cooked green and fried. As a...

Re: Thai black pup for trade

Thank you for the help, but he does not have any of those available until next year. Good idea though as he has a ton of varieties. I have been messaging back and forth a few times with him; cool guy.

Re: Thai black pup for trade

Looks like the larger pup is spoken for, but I will have 2 more good sized pups available soon. One I have designated as a reward for an upcoming contest, so stay tuned!
