Default Re: Pisang Ceylon (formerly Pisang Klotek) for sale

The Pisang Klotek pup I got was one of two that a guy brought it back from Sri Lanka, so he said anyway. He traveled the world to bring back strange plants/seeds etc. This was before heavy restrictions were in place. Ive seen the photos of the places/tribes he's visited and plants he's collected over the years. He had a small nursery on Fairfax in Hollywood where he was propagating and selling rare plants that he collected in the wild. He also sold some common variety stuff that could be found at any big box store. The other plant went to someone in the Hollywood Hills and I've lost contact that person so no idea if it survived or not.

It is my personal favorite of all the bananas I've grown. You can see the list in my profile.

That's about all I can contribute.

And yes I'm still growing PK, lots of it, as well as DB, FHIA 18, and Dwarf Namwah.
