Introduction

fredvries · 09-27-2013, 06:13 AM

Well, I was asked to introduce myself a bit and here we go: I live in Harlingen, a coastal town in the very north of The Netherlands. I am an avid grower of chili peppers (and even wrote a little book about it) and now have decided to try to grow (and write about) bananas.

My first seeds (Musa velutina and Musa ornata) are now soaking and I'm hoping to coax them into life.

My musings about Musa (pun intended) can be found and read here.

I hope to learn a lot from the knowledgeable people who reside here.

Thank you all for the very warm welcome. I feel very much at home here already.

BTW: If you might find a glaring typo or grammatical error on my little blog about bananas (if will not give a link for fear of being reprimanded), please don't hesitate to contact me.
