I kept my banana plant alive all summer even after the neigbors cat knocked it off the shelf. it got sick but i learned how to make insect soap and now its healthy again but its not very big so i cant have another one yet. but it will be. im going to grow it till its as tall as the house. =D
Awesome! Deadmau5 totally kicks and i like hard style and psyko punkz too. i got Cage the elephants new album last summer and Pendulum and Foo Fighters and Senses fail and there really kewl.

As for me, I have two plants planted in the ground, both of them an unknown variety. I plan on expanding my fruit trees next spring to Cherimoya, Dwarf Red, Real Ice Cream, 1000 Fingers, Mango, Passionfruit, and Physical Graffiti Dragonfruit. And Pendulum is beast too! I totally love DnB. I should take a look at that music thread.

I dont know what all those plants are but thats amazing. i cant put my banana plants in the ground cuz its too cold here so im growing mine in a pot till summer. mangos rool and there my favorite fruit.
Pendulums total beast! Self vs Self was epic and that cover they made for Linkin Parks song The Catalyst was better than Linkin Park. Do you like Attack Attack? Doctor Shavargo part 3 is bomb! btw the music threads in the tiki hut section and its called What are you listening to.

Yeah, I already posted there. I'm so glad I live in Southern California. I don't really have to worry about the cold here, the biggest threat to my plants is wind. The fall and winter winds have been known to blow down small trees! That's why I'm sticking to wind resistant and dwarf varieties. But since Dwarf Red has bad cold resistance (pretty much all red bananas have bad cold resistance) I might have to wrap it in the winter. Mangoes and cherimoyas have bad wind resistance so I'll have to plant them in a protected spot, but dragon fruit has good wind resistance.

I recently went to a local high-end nursery and I was surprised to see what kinds of plants they had there. They had papayas, guavas, dragon fruit, cherimoyas, several varieties of bananas (even what appeared to be a Siam Ruby, which is rare), passion fruit, and lots and lots of lemons and oranges.

This is dragon fruit:
Pitaya - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is cherimoya:

I need to check out that remix of The Catalyst. But I get most of the music I listen to from Pandora nowadays.
