Re: Bananas in our gardens
In case anyone likes photos, I took these this morning while checking on the garden.
Ae Ae bunch progressing nicely Bungulan now has wider leaves that can handle higher light intensity Williams is growing well, but nothing special Double Mahoi is taller than my neighbor's fruiting ones, but still no bud. On the left is Hawaiian sugarcane - Ko Honua Ula - about 7 1/2 to 8 ft high. Gros Michel 'Cocos' doing well GM has nice color on the petioles Dwarf Namwah growing slower, and leaves still roundish Hua Moa with 6 ft p-stem, and 10 pups Manai Ula has stopped growing, but the pup is taking off Manzano bunch slowly getting fatter I liked my daughter's SDC (left) so well I bought one with 2 pups (right) for me Saba and pups - largest pup has 7 ft p-stem, main plant is 14 in at base Ko Halai'i - variegated Hawaiian sugarcane, about 7 ft high That's enough for now.

Re: Bananas in our gardens
Ante, I see you turned to flowering plants this season, do you know that my parthenocissus which climbed on the garage almost all died this winter, only couple branches survived.

Re: Bananas in our gardens
Hi Guys, I only have a small city garden so I don’t have many varieties of bananas in there… most of my collection I have on my allotment in a polytunnel.
Here are some pics of my garden! E.ventricosum “Hiniba”   And here I have E.ventricosum “Maurelii” M.sikkimensis gigantean and M.lasciocarpa.   Thanks, Tony |

Re: Bananas in our gardens
Maybe small but beautiful and very well composed.
Very nice collection of exotics. Your fatsia japonica is really huge. My fatsia suffering during winters too much and year by year is almost the same size (or smaller  ).this are couple of my bananas, this season.:

Re: Bananas in our gardens
Ante, I wish I could over winter my nanas in the garden like that… it would be so cool!!
We in the UK have just had the coldest spring (March/April) in 50 years with cold winds coming from the northeast and my garden looks very bare at the moment, that’s all set to change at the weekend though because the wind is going to change direction and come from the south. |

Re: Bananas in our gardens
Very nice Ante,well done!
 How come you have so much green already? All those leafs survived the winter unprotected? You must have had quite a great winter!Frost got mine in Pyrgos this winter too unfortunately,in February...I Melissia,i got snow for a few days,like usual,just less duration with not too low minimums.How many leafs did you get from each banana till now? In Melissia,i only got 1 from my Ice Cream and my potted plantlets are working on their first acclimated one while in Pyrgos,i can see from the cameras i have 2 or more leafs on each of my potted bananas but i cant see how many on my in ground ones.

Re: Bananas in our gardens
Thanks,
I got most of damadge thanks to wind and combination with cold and dump weather results in loosing leaves. I dont have frost here. All others that arent protected from wind lost all green.
