Re: Golden Rhino Horn Banana
I purchased a Golden Rhino Horn from Willis Orchard last fall. I also purchased Ladyfinger, Raja Puri, Gran Nain and Ice Cream from them too. Overwintered everything in a container and then planted them all in the ground in March. I'm hoping for a mild winter this year and fruit next year so I can confirm the varieties. From my experience so far, the Rhino grew at about the same rate as the rest and only but up a couple pups this year. The descriptions on Willis say it will get up to 20 feet tall, but mine is probably only 8 or 9 feet now. I'll be sure to post updates next year during the growing season. This has been my first attempt growing banana plants so I'm pretty excited and anxious to see if I can get fruit.
