I have new banana plants (true blue java and mysore from a member on the form) in that area and am worried that the banana and bamboo roots will compete for space. The banana plants were both root bound in pots and recently planted in the ground. I’d like to move them if need be before the roots get settled into their new home.

Apologizes if this isnt the correct area to post this question.

Thanks!
Shey Try dwarf mulberry trees they grow well from cuttings and are fast growers you can plant them close and trim them so they get wide and fill in and you will get plenty of great fruit. John mulberry 12 feet wide
