Lots of blooms and bananas

lt_eggbeater · 05-31-2009, 08:49 PM

It seems as though it's banana season around my house. I have at least eight banana plants that have either bananas or blooms on them at the moment. Some plants even have two sets of stems giving bananas at the same time.

Wow, I should be so fortunate. LOL

Wow! You sure gonna have a bountiful harvest and be totally bananas with all the fruits you get! Hope you can finish them all. Congrats and nice palace you have there.

harveyc · 06-05-2009, 12:28 AM

Nice place, you've got lots of room for more bananas! Congrats!

I'm there!

Damn, I really love living in the midwest, but all you people with your year-round banana-growing climates really make me jealous, sometimes! I hate winter anyway, but I like the people/vibe and the rest of the seasons here.

Congrats on your successes though! And great pics!

Patty in Wisc · 06-05-2009, 03:10 PM

I remember seeing pics of your place 1-2 yrs ago. You were still working on landscaping -- nice job!
Here's what I got to look at not too long ago LOL My backyard

How depressing

saltydad · 06-05-2009, 03:49 PM

Patty- But the onset of Spring is so much more appreciated!

LilRaverBoi · 06-05-2009, 03:56 PM

Don't feel bad, Patty...I'm with ya there! I'm from Iowa and though I don't live there right now, I'll be back when grad school is over. Winter sucks for bananas, but it really is a great place to live beyond that.

And saltydad....spring is by far my FAVORITE season!

Overgrown · 06-07-2009, 02:09 AM

Sweet property and incredible house! Tons of space for plants!!!

Thanks, but there is still alot of landscape work left to be done. Its not quite year round growing season for bananas here though. It gets to mid 20's in the winter at night.

alexizhere19 · 06-07-2009, 08:27 PM

wow nice bananas and place. we had a little colder than normal winter here this year. but patty man, not banana weather. but hey its june now so grow bananas grow.

lt_eggbeater · 06-07-2009, 09:53 PM

Four more new blooms today. That makes twelve total fruiting at the moment. I'm not quite sure why everything is going "bananas" at that moment.
Sorry about the crap pun!
