Dwarf Orinoco for Zone 6?
Seems this one is edible - when fully ripe
Grows to 5-6' high, maybe up to 8' ? So it could grow in my greenhouse EBay has Wellspring Gardens that has them for $6 + shipping 5-8" tall I'm losing the battle to wait until next year  |

Re: Dwarf Orinoco for Zone 6?
Don't get your hopes up on the zone reading.....basjoo still needs alot of protection in your area and orinocos are less hardy than basjoos. They should hold up in a GH that stays above freezing.

Re: Dwarf Orinoco for Zone 6?
Yes, I saw the shipping is the same on 4 as it is on (1)
