There are several other varieties that I would think would do well there, with protection.

There are members here, that live up that way. I bet some of them will pipe in and be able to better share with you.

welcome aboard.

Hi Aaron, I am in the Central Valley, Visalia, CA to be specific. I think that I have corrected my pin on the map. I have already bought and paid for Praying Hands so I am stuck w/ that variety, at least to begin with. I have heard a lot about So. Cali banana growers. I am hoping to get some guidance from growers there, as well as, those that have had success around here. I am just studying for now. When my plants get here I know that I will be panicked about how to care for them. Did you say Cali Gold will fruit w/ no protection? Are you sure? Thanks for your friendly greeting, Bud. Good thoughts to you. Orin
