Re: What did you plant today (bananas)?
Hi Harvey
Yes, unfortunately I have to bring all banana plants in every fall. I don't
have a greenhouse, Most of the plants I bring in, chop off the leaves and
keep them in the basement where it is cool and dark. keeping them as
dormant bulbs until spring. The others that I want to work with go into
a special room where we can adjust humididty and light conditions.
The Golden leaves banana is supposed to grow edible fruit. And is
apparently very tasty. I will never know as I am allergic to banana's
and have never eaten a whole one in my life. If I do, I could die. The
plants sure are great though.
I brought in my Dwarf Enano Gigante 3 weeks ago and noticed it is
starting to variegate. If it continues to do so, and when it grows
out a bit more, I will post a pic. I posted a pic of the Golden Leaves
Banana in the Variegated pic section.
