Re: Banana Circles
I've been doing Permaculture for 10 years and have not done a banana circle. I need to know more about it as it does not seem to make much sense to me--the bananas won't stay in a circle as they gradually reproduce. Feeding them by heavy composting materials and layers around the areas they are sprouting from and the base of the trees plus plenty of rain in the rainy season and then supplementing the water when it's the winter/dry season here (Florida, Zone 9 A/B) keeps them going well. And I put them under the canopies of large oak trees to protect them from the frosts and freezes we can get on occasion in the winter months.
