OK, this is better; but I'm still not sure how banana plants would fit in.

Title XXVIII; 373.185; section 3(b): states: A deed restriction or covenant may not prohibit or be enforced so as to prohibit any property owner from implementing Florida-friendly landscaping on his or her land or create any requirement or limitation in conflict with any provision of part II of this chapter ...

Also, I did see under section 1(b): Florida-friendly landscaping includes 'attraction of wildlife'. So for the HOA to ban bird feeders is a violation of this statute.

Anyway, I would tell the HOA their order to remove the banana plants which were planted as part of the approved 'Florida Friendly landscaping' plan is a violation of this Florida Statute.
