new at bananas

paxto22 · 08-08-2016, 06:58 PM

hello I live in Canada zone 3 so it is way to cold outside in the winter to grow bananas. I'm looking for a good place to buy banana plants here. I would also love any tips or tricks for growing bananas inside.

Welcome! Where are you located? Please update in your profile so we don't ask you again.
I know I've got some and I know where you can get some more, depending what you want and where you live.

Let me see if I can find someone in your province... I know that for me to ship a very small pup, it's around 25$ just for shipping. I've got only 2 varieties at the moment that would be small enough to ship. Dwarf Cavendish and a really small variety which I have no idea what it is. Looks like SDC but way smaller. It's really tough too.
You can always look in your local hardware store or nursery but you never know what you're going to get. Usually cheaper though.

swift current is a pretty small center. our hardware stores and nursery carry only the "essential" plants like blue berry plants and tomatoes and stuff like that. as they are to small to do anything else. also what does SDC mean?

Got those too. The pups are way too small though and there's a few members in line before you.

I really meant got. I have them. 3 members have been a while for pups so if you want some you'll be 4th. I can't find anything in your region. Pm me if you want the unknown one.
