Looking for Cocos, Highgate, SH-3640, and Pisang Klotek

GreenFin · 08-08-2012, 07:44 PM

I'd like to buy the super-nanners listed below. I don't care how small the plants are (small tc's or baby pups are fine), I just need them to be totally free of pests and disease since I grow my nanners in a closed-loop indoor system and don't want to introduce anything nefarious.

Cocos (a dwarf Gros Michel)
Highgate (another dwarf Gros Michel, slightly smaller than Cocos)
SH-3640
Pisang Klotek

Thanks!

OK, got the Cocos, Highgate, and SH-3640 taken care of...as well as a bonus of Goldfinger, Pisang Ceylon, California Gold, and real Ice Cream

[this board is awesome!]

Still looking for a Pisang Klotek. Anybody got a healthy little pup they could ship to me in Kansas?

Thanks in advance

where did you get your Cocos and Highgate?

I ordered the Cocos from Pitangadiego. Here's his availability page on his Encanto Farms website. He's located in San Diego and is a long-time member who is a proven provider of great plants.

I ordered the Highgate from Gekko1966. Here's the banana section of his website. I've never ordered from him before, and I was a bit nervous about it since he's located in Thailand, but he's communicated well with me since the sale and seems to be legit/professional.

I'll post pics when the plants arrive.

Musa 'Cocos' just arrived from Jon/Pitangadiego! Here it is fresh out of the packaging (the two trees beside it are a sapodilla and mango that arrived yesterday from Pine Island Nursery):

Thanks Jon!

Got this great California Gold in the mail today from Abnshrek (thanks Michael!):

Healthy as a horse (of course)

I'll move her into the greenhouse tonight, and she should take off like a rocket.

Its really thanks to Steve. I'm just spreading the wealth. :^)

congrats on the new nanners

wanted to bring to your attention they aren't clean

South Florida is afflicted with corm borer, Panama disease, Sigatoka, Spiral nematode, burrowing nematode, root knot nematode, and more.
Thailand can't be much better.

Maybe you can amend your potting media with some carbofuran, heptachlor, dieldrin etc
