This forum is about sharing experiences and ideas, not selling stuff.

Well actually trading, selling and buying is part of the forum. I feel better buying from members of the forum and someday when I have more plants I look forward to doing more sharing and trading.

But I still love watching the progress of an Ebay sale. It reaches a much larger amount of people from all over. BTW, we have auction in our classifieds also. )

Cagary, It wasn't meant to be a nasty comment about you hiding your ebay name it was only said in fun. I appologize if I have upset you that was not my intention.

we have the auctions,trading, buying and selling of plants on here. im glad to know that there are members on here who sell on e-bay. gives your mind a little more at ease knowing this is a real person and not someone who is trying to "rob" someone. i hope you sell all your plants! and what you dont sell on e-bay, you could post them on here for auction,sell,trade,etc. im sure they would go quick!

Mark,

No offence taken from your comment. I just thought it would be bad form to display photos of the banana plants I'm selling elsewhere and then offer what amounts to be a direct link ( my ebay name) to where they are being sold.

Gary,

Yes, this forum is primarily for sharing experiences and ideas. But it also allows you to share your products by buying, or selling your own products, particularly if they are banana products, etc., or even other plants. You just can't contract with other companies for renumeration and link them here without permission from the Organization. The key is it has to be for yourself, or a company that you own or work for directly.

Anybody wanna buy a Boeing jet? We have several models to choose from. And we're coming up with a new generation model constructed mostly from state of the art carbon composite materials (except the electronics, engines and landing gear). (LOL!)

Here's the base of the mother with still more pups.



Close up of the variegation.



Mom from a distance. Has to be over 20 feet tall!

These pics are amazing....I have never (Hawaii, S. Florida, etc.,) see Ae Ae's this big (circumference & height)....and pupping like crazy!

Kudos!

Great looking pups! I've heard AeAe is hard to grow, but you've made it look easy.

I think this is one of your babies.

I was thinking like you said these might be more cold hardy than an Ae ae from the tropics.
