Hi Folks,

I got some musa basjoo last year and they came through winter like champs, I'm really enjoying them. This spring I got some Mekong Giant plants and will be putting them in the ground soon. From what I read the Mekong spread by long runners off the corm. I'm wondering if these can be destructive like bamboo?
I have some bamboo that caused some trouble with the driveway and I had to install a barrier. Are bananas capable of this kind of mischief?
I have a good place for them away from anything, just curious.

Thanks
Dave
