What bananas do you grow? - Page 2

GATrops · 12-02-2005, 06:08 PM

Mitchel,

Thanks for the encouragement. That is my goal, to be unable to see the house for the banana plants. (About one more year should just about do it.)

You have a very good eye. The white things are name tags for the variety of banana.

Richard

pitangadiego · 12-03-2005, 01:58 AM

Kanderian was a very good size, and large bunch. It did start to ripen 3months after it showed the first hand in the flower. Pix are at my old post at http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/l...084730574.html

I tried uploading a pix here but "file was too large".

momoese · 12-03-2005, 11:19 AM

pitangadiego, from the looks of the pictures you posted in the other thread you have quite an amazing little jungle, but I can't see how you fit all those plants you have listed on your web site in that one area. Do you have another spot where you grow or just the front yard? I also see that your house doesn't seem to fit the general home design theme for your street. Did you build a new home and set it back off the street? Any more pics that show the jungle, like looking from across the street?

sean · 12-03-2005, 07:46 PM

I started my banana growing back in February...currently I have:

Goldfinger
Dwarf Red Jamaican
Dwarf Namwah
Dwarf Namwah Pearl
Praying Hands
Mona Lisa
Dwarf Orinoco
Dwarf Brazilian
Double Mahoi
FHIA-18
Saba
Rose
Velutina

So far only the orinoco has fruited, the brazilian has a flower now and am excited to try that fruit! Hopefully everything will have fruited within the year of planting!

pitangadiego · 12-03-2005, 09:35 PM

Momese,

The house has always been at the back of the lot, to take advantage of the view, since before we bought it. I started with citrus and peaches, plums, etc planted at 15' centers, and added mangos, figs, che, jujube, etc inbetween. Then I added bananas inbetween all that, and well as replacing a few things that had not done well. You do need a machete to navigate out there. That is why, no matter what you take a picture of, there will be a banana tree in the picture as well. See http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/l...342421527.html wherethe bananas appear to be growing on a tangerine tree.

I also have some space down our back hill, but that is mostly avocados, pitangas, guavas, sapote, sugar cane, some peaches and apples, and now at the bottom is my fig collection, about 75 varieties in ground on about 6-7' centers, and pruned to be short and bushy. But the bananas are all up on the flat where they are proctected from the wind, somewhat, by the house.

momoese · 12-03-2005, 10:34 PM

I'd really like to see this on one of our trips to Vista buying from the local nurseries. Do you provide guided tours?

AnnaJW · 12-04-2005, 03:39 AM

Pitangadiego,

I would like to get in on the guided tour as well. :-)

BTW, my sister told me she saw a Huell Howser show on TV last weekend that showed a banana grower in the San Diego area. Wasn't you, was it? :-)

AnnaJW · 12-04-2005, 03:43 AM

GATrops,

Love the yard!!!

pitangadiego · 12-04-2005, 05:28 PM

Momese, et al,

Visitors are always welcome. I am usually home on Saturdays (baring weddings, school events and such - wedding this Saturday) and can usually accomodate some weekday times. So, drop me a note when you are going to be in town.

I always have banana plants for sale, some figs, grapes, passiflora, a few odds and ends, and nest Spring hope to graft several cherimoyas (the rootstocks are finally getting to size)

saturn · 12-06-2005, 12:31 PM

i'm a bit too lazy for all of those, being in zone 7 and all..

sandy0225 · 12-07-2005, 08:09 AM

Hey, in all fairness, it took me two days to move all my bananas inside. And I enlisted my husband's help to move the largest 12 footers...Also the garden tractor and trailer. But yes, that was a lot of digging. Thank goodness for the hot tub and advil!
I do love bananas, but I don't think I'll have 65 to dig up again this fall. I'm going to thin them out somewhat through the farmers' market. (by the way, I said that last year, when I only had 20 to dig!)
Sandy

kaczercat · 10-03-2009, 11:19 PM

I was going through and found this thread. so what the heck.

Here's my short list:

1.Ice cream
2.Orinoco
3.Dwarf cavendish
4.basjoo
5.Rajapuri
6.bordelon
7.sdc
8.Kru
9.Dwarf red-green

Im sure I will add on to my collection in the spring of 2010.

Eric · 10-04-2009, 12:11 PM

Well, when I first started back in May, I had two types: 4 Blue Javas and 1 Gran Nain. But the list seems to have grown a little

! Now I've got 5 different types to bring in for the winter:
1. 4 Blue Javas
2. 1 Ruby Siam
3. 1 Gran Nain
4. 1 Giant Sweet plantain
5. 2 Orinocos
6. 1 Sikkimensis
But I'm Definitely stopping at five, well, six after I get my Orinoco. It's just one more so that's not much. Having Too Many types of nanners takes up a lot of time and I got a lot to do. So when I get my Velutina & Ae Ae I'm stopping there cause I really don't need Glui Khai or a Namwah. Well, I've got 5

!
UPDATE
Got 2 Orinoco corms from Bob in New Jersey!! They're up with leaves so now I officially grow 6 kinds of nanners!
