cowboyup4christ · 07-29-2009, 09:15 PM

just found a 2 ft one on ebay for 9.99 plus 8:99 shipping

pitangadiego · 07-29-2009, 10:56 PM

Very, very nice bananas. Small, finger size. Very tall and skinny plant. MUST support when fruiting. Doesn't take wind, Medium pupper.

Hej Cowboy, I'm tired of Pisang Ceylon (to understand, please, read the thread name)...

Eric · 07-30-2009, 06:31 AM

Not sure if they're tired of Pissing.... Uh.... Er.... Pisang Ceylons yet but has anyone heard from Chironex, Klemmthamm, or JPfloors yet? Can't help but wonder how theirs are doing.

BTW, Cold Tolerant can be a fairly relative concept. I've been growing things for 3 years that should be very marginal in Oklahoma - sometimes it's more a matter of strategy, especially in bordering zones

.

cowboyup4christ · 07-30-2009, 08:46 AM

don't know who got scott's but he sold off all of his inventory. what about these can't find any listed except tyty and I wouldn't risk them.
Texas Star

Eric · 07-30-2009, 11:19 AM

Don't blame ya on tyty but the 1st & last in the list are at Aaron's Nursery (If ya wanna risk them).... Still can't figure whether they're selling lewd photos or plants

!

cowboyup4christ · 07-30-2009, 11:34 AM

Good luck with the Pisang Ceylon (excuse the humor, I couldn't resist

). Ya got me going now with the Texas Star, Carolina King, & Golden Rhinohorn. Searched the internet & couldn't find anything on that Amistad, though. Living in Oklahoma (my whole life, so far), I think I'll try for all 3. If I get hold of one, I'll let ya know... & where I got it.
Need to get them in the wiki, too. From what I read this afternoon, they're some great nanners... esp Texas Star... 16 degrees & came back!? Incredible!

Abnshrek · 03-04-2010, 02:55 PM

I have 2.. one is a pup I had written off as dead, and low & behold it's got a lil green chute coming up.. I'm glad I replaced my heater with the busted thermstat when I did.. For a while there I though my green thumb was busted, and needed an overhaul :^)

cowboyup4christ · 03-05-2010, 07:23 AM

Mine is doing well in the greenhouse, it has a small dark splotch on the stem but seems to still be solid all the naners have been slowly growing a new leaf all winter. can't wait for spring

Abnshrek · 03-05-2010, 09:45 AM

Well yesterday I was unbagging the 2 nanners at the corners of the deck (well two of them (cause I noticed soemthing was wrong). Someone tripped over the cord of the heat-tape and unplugged them. Any how I guess my mother PC is down to under a foot versus 3.5 feet of p-stem w/ 12 of leaf. Dwarf Orinoco, and Raja Puri took a beating too. Well I think when I get done I can start a thread "Heat-tapes vs. no heat-tapes" or tall & green vs. alot of cut-off brown. Well i know the unplug effected two more so I best be off to check out the Raja, and the SDC's. @ least they are all alive thanks to the straw :^)

cowboyup4christ · 03-05-2010, 02:13 PM

King Canopy 10 x 10-foot Portable Greenhouse is what I use to house my naners this winter, you can get them at Walmart Walmart.com: King Canopy 10 x 10 Greenhouse: Lawn & Garden but they are out of stock alot. this is where I got mine and it had free shipping King Canopy 10 x 10-foot Portable Greenhouse - Greenhouses at Potting Benches put in a milkhouse heater and a thermostat on a drop cord from norhtern tool and it has worked like a charm set it to a low of 45 degrees and they were happy as could be.

I have 4 nanners I'm putting in the ground behind my garage, I might just have to do that or some other taller (homemade version) method depending how they grow this summer :^)

I bought a Pisang Ceylon, an Ice Cream, and a Misi Luki from Willisorchards several weeks ago, all apparently nice plants. Only now is the Misi Luki starting to seriously grow. Nothing appears to be happening with the one-leaf Ice Cream, which was the situation with the Pisang Ceylon. Then, about a week ago the Pisang Ceylon's pseudostem softened and collapsed. It looks like a fungus to me, but I saw no black on the leaves or trunk. I had a similar problem with a Grand Nain earlier this summer. I sprayed and sprayed, but nothing helped. It appeared to be rotten to the root. It had a keiki that has grown strongly, no sign of fungus, and it has a keiki of its own. I have a lot of otherwise healthy banana plants. So, what is happening?
