Default Re: Hurricane Bill..

I'm hoping for the best for all of you in FL. We got Ike last year and we're keeping a close eye on the gulf.

I didn't really do anything to my bananas last year as Ike approached (just didn't have time). My 'Orinoco' was fruiting and had a bunch prop on it and it still failed. All of the leaves on my other bananas were just trashed with the exception of my potted M. laterita, which I was able to lay down behind the garage. It was unharmed completely. My M. siamensis (also potted) escaped most damage as it was protected due to the side of the house it was on.
