Hello everyone,
I am new to tropical planting in general, and after reading this forum and others, and narrowing down the tropicals I'll like to have in my new garden, started last spring, banana plants was right up there on my list.
Anyhoo....I purchased Musa Basjoo plants today for $15.99 each, from Millionplants garden center in St Catherines ON Canada. I got them home and transplanted them into a bigger pot ( 10" pot ).
Here is the picture
I plan to put one on the front lawn when the last frost is over ( May 24th )
and
The other one in the backyard
Please share you tips on how to make this plants grow taller in the first season, care and maintenance, how to wintererize them if I choose to bring them in and store in the basement?
I am also going to be growing castor bean plants, which I have going under growlights in the basement at the moment.
Cheers
