*Update* Here’s my Apple Manzano plant now!
I originally posted a new thread back several months ago about how I had accidentally butchered this plant pretty badly.
I was afraid I had killed stone dead! So thankfully I can say not only is it alive & well but it’s grown immensely since then! I am so happy! ![]() ![]() ![]() Please check it out and let me know what you think! Thanks so much for taking the time to read this! I really appreciate it!

Very happy for you. I have always wondered if it really tastes like an apple. This one and the ice cream one were the first bananas that I was going to try to get.

Joe,
Thanks for that information. Do you happen to know how cold hardy it happens to be? |

The manzano banana is pretty cold hardy, I think even more so than Orinoco.

It’s pretty interesting how the Apple banana actually tastes like an apple! Also that it is a cold hardy plant as well! Thanks everyone for commenting on my thread!
