Ordered from Greenearth Pub. Monday the 18th and received my bananas this morning. These are my first Banana trees and wanted to share with the forum. I uploaded the photos to photobucket: http://s750.photobucket.com/albums/xx141/gardening_wi/
I couldn't seem to paste a photo within this post.
Super excited to get them in their pots. I set them in the sun (even though it's -5 here) in my south facing window until I pot them up this afternoon. I have a Margarita, Siam Ruby and a Dwarf Cavendish. Impressed with the packaging and the plants. Their leaves are a little discolored but from what I have read that is to be expected. Check out the pictures and let me know what you think! |

| I'm curious to see what others have to say about your bananas. I've never purchased one on line. Wonder if that's what they're supposed to look like. Btw, to post a picture you need to copy and paste the html code from photobucket.
Good luck with your bananas and keep us posted on how they do. :) Sandra |

thanks for the picture tip - I will try that next time. I will post pictures of how they look after a couple weeks. Hopefully they will be OK. |

| Hi and good luck! A friend of mine has a Siam Ruby. Keep it very warm, a little humid too, and don't give it much water. A little water every 2-3 weeks is all right in winter but more than that could cause corm-rot. You will lose those leaves but new ones will grow so your safe on that. |
