I knew you'd enjoy that, Pete! These are the houses that I've seen bananas happily growing last year. It looks like we need these folks as new members for bananas.org! I should give them a business card for this website. Jarred, do you have any?

I'm liking all the street-shots! I didn't even know google maps did that till recently. It's very helpful. I was going to a party in a new location one night, so I looked up the venue and the surrounding streets (in daylight on the pics) and it really helped out when I was there! Yay for google maps....but for bananas!!

I got them back in January. You can look at them on greenearth.com. They have some really nice plants. The delivery is really good to, I got mine two days after ordering them. I put two in the ground today and built a make shift greenhouse for those cool nights. I hope they live. Keep your fingers crossed.

Well guess I was just unlucky! I ordered on a Sat. (cause that is what they recommended cause I was attempting to avoid the weekend since it was kinda cold in my area and didn't want them sitting in a cold warehouse somewhere for a few days). Anywho, I ordered Sat. and didn't receive mine till the Mon. over a week later It really wasn't their fault....just USPS, but I was sooooo anxious all week already it kinda killed me to have to wait that long! I will say the plants themselves were very healthy and are doing great.
