Unknown Ft. Meyer bananas?
I was just visiting in Ft. Meyers, Fl, and saw the same small, slender, green banana plants everywhere- maybe 50 mats, and not one bloom or fruit. Anyone know what they have down there? It is much smaller than the Orinocos around central Florida. maxing out around 7-8 feet, and I never saw a stem more than 6-8 inches in diameter. The leaves tend to be narrow, and the whole plant is a bit on the pale side of banana green. I asked a couple people, who said that those are just bananas.
