Frank,

I really enjoyed reading the post of your winter digging and storing methods of bananas. In fact, I enjoyed it so much that I saved the entire post on my computer!! It's a great reference for anyone who is growing bananas. My musella lasiocarpa has 7 baby pups now!!! It's going crazy! I'll let these pups grow all year and maybe separate them next year. I agree that this banana is one of my favorites. I'll get a pic of it soon. My orinocos are doing well, but the ice cream is still moving pretty slow. Ice cream takes some hot weather to get going really well.
