Orinocos Orinocos Orinocos!!!!
This has got to be one of the "Tuffiest" Banana Plants ever bred!! If you have problems with cold Weather get Orinocos or Dwarf Orinocos!!! They are the BEST!!!

Re: Orinocos Orinocos Orinocos!!!!
Hi Frank,
I understand that Tall Orinoco and Dwarf Orinoco are the cold-hardiest under your climate. Besides those two, what bananas have you overwintered and what was the results. D. Brazilian, Cal. Gold, Rajapuri might have been strong. Thanks, Stan |

Re: Orinocos Orinocos Orinocos!!!!
Isn't this the easiest type to get to fruit up north? Would you recommend the dwarf or the regular if a person wanted to try to get a banana to fruit up here?
Thanks. |

Re: Orinocos Orinocos Orinocos!!!!
Either one I think would be good!! You will still have to dig them up and store in your Garage I think.
Good Luck, Frank |
