Seattle ,banana grower looking for help in over wintering new fruit on out door plants

Abnshrek · 09-23-2013, 05:43 PM

Hello, Welcome & What type of Banana's are you growing? :^)

lmswayne · 09-23-2013, 06:04 PM

I have no clue my husband bought them for me on line . I stuck them in the ground fed them protected them and loved them for the last 8 years. this year I was amazed to get fruit now it is fall I have baby bananas do I treat them as I have the plant in the Past or do I have to do something special for the babes ?

8 YEARS AND NO FRUIT? I gotta follow this thread. . . Most likely seeded? Everyone is gonna tell you to POST A PICTURE and tell your Hardiness Zone/location. Lots of mulch your best option.
EDIT: maybe Christmas lights for heat? Seattle, WA???

Yes 8 years Seattle weather is not conducive to growing tropical plants. but we do the best we can. These plants have never been out of the ground I just cover them with a cage made of wire fence and frost cloth

lmswayne · 09-29-2013, 06:04 PM

Thanks to my husband my photos are up my zone came up 12 good bad again clueless
I am still having a bit of a time finding my way around the site. I will get it soon I hope.
So does anyone Know What kind of bananas they are?

jbyrd88888 · 09-29-2013, 06:20 PM

lmswayne · 09-29-2013, 06:31 PM

thank you much. I have bananas growing they are about 1&1/2 inches I hope I can keep them growing over winter.

jbyrd88888 · 09-29-2013, 06:41 PM

I don't think you will be able to eat this variety! Anyone here want to second my opinion?

lmswayne · 09-29-2013, 06:47 PM

I thought all bananas are edibile

jbyrd88888 · 09-29-2013, 07:36 PM

yeah none are poisonous/toxic but the taste is not gonna be what you're looking for and has seeds. Try Wellspring Gardens or get a member here to get you a good eatin' one or two for cheap!
