Thanks, Kyle. I should be getting mine in sometime soon. The new Small Lots of Seed Program from the USDA sure makes getting the seeds take a lot longer, and a bit more of a hassle, but I suppose it's a good thing. I just hate it that I have to arrange shipping from the inspection station to here, as well as shipping from overseas to the inspection station. They used to just forward the seeds on free of charge, I am told, but not anymore.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to receiving them and the new batch of Musa cheesmani seeds. I also ordered some of the new M. velutina seeds, as Phil said they came from the huge plants in his pictures.
