All hello! I recently have visited our Irkutsk botanical garden. Here there is some photo. At them in a collection was only 3 kinds of bananas. It Musa velutina, Musa sikkimensis and Musa ornata. Musa velutina and Musa ornata grow small puppies. The biggest kind it Musa sikkimensis, it reaches in height of 4,5 meters. But still never blossomed. I hope it will soon let out the first flower. I have suggested them to make a collection more and have transferred following kinds in a garden:
Musa Violacea
Musa acuminata
Musa basjoo Sieb.et Zucc
Musa Dwarf Cavendish
Ensete superbum
Musella lasiocarpa
And as a bamboo:
Bambusa arundinacea
Dendrocalamus membranaceus
Dendrokalamus asper
Phyllostachys heteroclada

I think it it will be better in a greenhouse, than in a room. Now the most part of my bananas and a bamboo has moved to a botanical garden. I shall observe of them there. We wish to make the greatest collection of bananas, a bamboo and palm trees in Russia. I think it it will turn out. Today I land new seeds of bananas:

Musa laterita
Musa manii
Musa nagensium
Musa paradisiaca var. seminifera .New Bhutan.
