I have a nephew in Dalton Ga. that can leave his bananas out all winter.
I have 2 acres of what I like to think of as a botanical garden. I love to find new plants to try. I have many gardens, topiary, and water gardens. This used to be a rural areaa but they are building 5 story apartments and condos next door. The developers wanted to buy my property but at 76 years old and I have been here 47 years and I don't want to start over with all the plants I have so I will just be a petunia in an onion patch.
You said it was good to see a Shular name. What is you connection with Shular?

First off, I have no connection with the Shular name, but I am a big TN fan and Heath was a great quarterback for them years ago. Hated to see what happened to him professionally. Anyway, some of the bananas that I have stay out year 'round, while others will be dug up and stored either potted in my garage, or stored dry rooted under the house. I have several this year that I will be testing to see how they fare for me outside, so I am still learning and experimenting. Again, great to have you aboard!!!!
