Default Re: Dwarf Namwah

For those of us who don't live in the tropics, this variety has a lot going for it. It's at the top of list for handling cool conditions and dry conditions. It is a very vigorous grower. In my yard, it is the best fruit producer. The fruit are good (when fully ripe -- there is even a hint of green on the peel, wait longer!) and they have long shelf life. It isn't my favorite for flavor or texture, but I prefer them over Cavendish varieties (which I buy from the store when I don't have home grown fruit). I wouldn't be without this bulletproof variety.
