Default Re: Uber rare and cool stuff!

There are so many interesting "new" types becoming available now, it's hard to decide which are worthy of cultivation when basing a decision on a sellers hype. Itinerans does look like a very worthy prospect based on its ornamental qualities. Musa Ingens has got to be the most interesting prospect currently for myself, maybe because there is not much information out yet. It seems that people are simply not interested because of its huge size, or are only interested in edible varieties??? I've read of a few people with seeds currently, but no news on germination or wheter Ingens could be tissue cultured, or even grown outdoors any place other than New Guinea. I've got to admit, it would be really neat if only to grow the thing outdoors as an annual plant every year.
