Your plants look great, loved looking at them. I hope to add some trees/plants this yr to our growing orchard.
Thank's!

We got cold weather and frost every day for more than 2 weeks. My banana trees have all leaves dead... just hope the trunk is not dead and continue to grow in some weeks with warmer weather. All my tropicals and citrus suffered.

I really don't know. This is a great variety for cold hardy places. I got a very cold winter, i even lost some citrus trees... but she only loose the leaves! Another great thing is that she grows very fast! I have other cold hardy varieties that resisted well to cold like orinoco and rajapuri, but grow much more slower. She is very good looking!
