Any good places to see bananas or get some plants on the big island and can these be transported back to the mainland?
You can bring plants back to the mainland, just make sure you wash off all the soil. To see banana plants, just look out the window as you're driving, they are everywhere! You can look up some nurseries or if you something you like, try to find the owner and ask for a pup. I'm not too familiar with Big Island, I've only been once, but am going again in a week and should get a better idea of the good spots for bananas.
