Hi,
thanks all for your help SUPER!

LOL, to me it looks more like a pink submarine
I'll submerge it. Back home I'll put both bulbs in a larger pot in well draining soil and some perlite.

Dad took the corm in the first pic from a kampung somewhere on Java. It travelled with him for almost a week. To keep it healthy, he put it in a plactic KFC pot with some wet soil. This one is called pisang Ambon, which is probably Musa Gros Michel. (If not, I'd like to know)

The corm in the first pic was taken from the hotel garden on Bali. This one is called pisang Raja (king banana) ans is probably Musa Belle. (If not, I'd like to know)

Yeah, dad did a great job, he didn't send them by mail
Thanks again for your help and interest. Maybe I can add some more pics later on.

Marguerite
