african rhino horn
l am excited about my two new banana plants, african rhino horn and praying hands. by next year l should have some fruit, or maybe the next year. l also have icecream bananas and an unknown species which was given to me by a nice man. one of my newest ones is kru, bananas just take too long to give fruit.

Re: african rhino horn
I have perhaps been growing this type all along but didn't know it due to the fact that it has a different name here in the Philippines: Tindok. So I haven't been inducted into the ARH club for this reason I think. They are indeed very interesting to grow. Even here where there's a banana plant in everyone's yard, not many people are familiar with it.
" ...bananas just take too long to give fruit." I planted grapes here long before I started in bananas, but have only gotten a couple of handfuls of fruit. Each week I get a truckload of bananas! Durian, mango and rambutan all take longer than bananas. Apples, cherries, peaches, etc. all take several years to really bear fruit. I know it takes longer in your climate for bananas to fruit, but most fruiting "trees" need patience. I'm pretty happy about mine.

Re: african rhino horn
I had several nights this last winter with sustained (4+ hours) temperatures of 35 F. My young ARH did not show any signs of stress in comparison to the other bananas in the plat. For this reason I bought a full flat from AgriStarts this summer.
