Viente Cohol countdown - Page 5

Jananas Bananas · 06-17-2010, 06:04 PM

I bought three, one for me, one for Dean, and one for my daughter. I have all three of them so far as I wasn't liking how they looked. I wasn't going to give someone a yukky banana! I have been trying to toughen them up for the Texas heat and here they are today.

Here is mine it finally started growing

srash · 06-21-2010, 08:07 PM

I planted mine in the ground a couple of months ago as soon as they arrived. I was 110 on the wait list.

I am a bit ignorant to banana care. Could you elaborate on what you are using, the costs and where I might find it. I am especially interested in the "why" these treatments are needed and what they do for the banana. Thanks

Not sure what your doing but mine is growing new leafs but the plant is still small. We have been having a strange year this year tho the crape mrytle trees are not even blooming usally there full of blooms by this time of year.

abnshrek should have a pup soon. hes doing a good job. he should have pups to offer before anyone else...dont know what hes using for fertilizers and it doesn't matter.
come on guys look at what hes doing to his plantings compared to the ones that aren't doing so well.

I appreciate the confidence.. I keep looking everyday hoping and not hoping.. A pup would be nice, but rather it waits till the end of august so I can get the most out of this season. :^) I have a dwarf namwah (spring TC) that has two pups in the same row that is taller than any banana in the row. :^) A manzano (spring TC back Row) is a foot (p-stem) or 2 ft taller in the leaves easy. :^)
