Boggles my mind how we are able to buy seeds of so many Chinese cycads and other plants, but Musa seeds and plants remain very elusive. Musa itinerans var. xishuangbannaensis is an extremely desirable species, and I'm sure that there would be a market for it both here and in Europe. I think we will just have to wait...patiently...
As soon as I can verify that what I am growing is Xishaung, I am planning to TC it and offer to our members. I 'THINK' that I have one, but won't know until it grows out. Otherwise, I am looking for a pup somewhere from a verified source.
