We belong to different cultures so it's obvious that our point of view is different. I just went to my orchard and took a look at my grafted banana pups and they look beautiful. I shall call them San Mauro Bananas, born out of my blessed grafting, right here in Kameyama City, Mie Prefecture, Japan.
If you doubt me, please come and take a look at them I will welcome you all.
Remember, I got a hot and humid climate to grow bananas during the summer, so my chances to be succesful is much greater than any of you.
Bye, till we meet again.

Hey Mauro, I'm a nanner graft nay-sayer......But I always welcome to be proved wrong. The only thing is if you had the graft parents "dna tested" then had the pups tested as well, the pups should be from one or the other. I do believe that grafted nanners do well, but a graft is all it is, a graft. You still have 2 different plants each with thier own biology and chemistry. I also doubt heavily that you can make something like a Jamaican Red with a Basjoo graft and the Red would not (I feel) carry the hardiness of the basjoo when exposed to a prolong snap of 38*.
Like I said before though, these are my opinions so value them as that and only that. I am not a scientist, I am a fan and a hobbiest. So if you want to prove me wrong, please feel free to do so! I am open to higher education and will take it when I can get it.
