Replies: 13 Sold as "ice cream": pink pseudostem, maroon leaf midribs, glaucous leaf undersides Views: 1,378 Posted By CGameProgrammer Re: Sold as "ice cream": pink pseudostem, maroon leaf midribs, glaucous leaf undersid Thanks Janelle, that's clearly the same plant. I assume it lost the pink color as it grew up?

I know it's not blue java but all of the pictures I could find of namwah show a much less colorful plant than this one. I don't know which banana varieties have this pronounced...

Replies: 1 Organic Blue Java pups for sale in San Diego! Views: 637 Posted By CGameProgrammer Re: Organic Blue Java pups for sale in San Diego! I am interested! Local. Bare root is fine (bananas don't mind at all). Prefer a larger pup such as the one on the right if it's not expensive.

Light pink pseudostems with very pronounced purple leaf midribs both...

Replies: 4 Magnificent and very tall banana plant (fruiting) in LA Views: 985 Posted By CGameProgrammer Magnificent and very tall banana plant (fruiting) in LA A few years ago I came across this very tall banana plant in front of the Formosa restaurant in Los Angeles. You can see it's fruiting. These are the only pictures I took of it. Does anyone have any...

Replies: 19 Experiences with Goldfinger from LaVerne Nursery? Views: 2,259 Posted By CGameProgrammer Re: Experiences with Goldfinger from LaVerne Nursery? I'm aware. That's fine, and pups' leaves are smaller. When the stems are tall enough to have full-length leaves it's not an issue at all. I had a young palm tree at this spot beforehand, and a Mysore...

It's in a small dirt area 3.5 feet per side, surrounded on three sides by a sidewalk, my driveway, and the alley my house is on. There'd be little room in the dirt to stick a propping device once it...

Replies: 19 Experiences with Goldfinger from LaVerne Nursery? Views: 2,259 Posted By CGameProgrammer Re: Experiences with Goldfinger from LaVerne Nursery? I wanted something that does not need propping (admittedly secondary to wind resistance) which is why I wasn't looking for Namwah. Do you think this one from LaVerne is the dwarf one or the...

One of his stems was producing fruit when I visited but...

Replies: 1 Goldfinger from LaVerne Nursery Views: 1,065 Posted By CGameProgrammer Goldfinger from LaVerne Nursery I posted these on the main forum but it's probably better to do it here. Some people said LaVerne's "Goldfinger" is really a Namwah but that's true of their "Ice Cream" and it seems odd to sell the...

Replies: 19 Experiences with Goldfinger from LaVerne Nursery? Views: 2,259 Posted By CGameProgrammer Re: Experiences with Goldfinger from LaVerne Nursery? Well that sucks. I read Goldfinger is more wind-resistant and less likely to need propping, both of which are very important to me. Here are photos of it, just in...

Replies: 19 Experiences with Goldfinger from LaVerne Nursery? Views: 2,259 Posted By CGameProgrammer Experiences with Goldfinger from LaVerne Nursery?

Has anyone had success with...
