Re: Uber rare and cool stuff!
Musa ingens is not popular yet because there are no plants in the market and seeds are rediculously hard to germinate. I will be doing some extensive studies on in vitro embryo germination this year and hope to possibly get a few M. ingens plants from it. In past trials, only a very very small percentage of seeds have ever germinated in cultivation.
