Re: Musa ingens
I heard that it was extremely difficult to grow and requires a very precise set of conditions, let alone being very hard to acquire. I believe several Org members have tried and failed.

Re: Musa ingens
Why do people want this species in the first place,...?
Just because it's the biggest? Kind regards, Remko. |

For something that big, it would be hard to provide the weird climate requirements. Be cool to try though.
