Default Re: Sad banana plants

I do not think that altitude or subfreezing temperatures have caused these plants to look the way they look. Sensitive plants and animals get shipped with planes around the world all the time without any problems.
Healthy pups or corms cannot be shipped from Florida to California without a Phytosanitary Certificate. So my guess is that these were some extremely sensitive tissue cultures to begin with, shipped in constant shipping stress, West from Florida to California and then back East all the way to Sweden.
It would surprise me if they do make it, but wish you best of luck.
