My Backyard

17 years ago

Here is a shot of my Backyard I took yesterday! The Bananas are still growing Great. Some of these are around 12'. All different kinds. Most of them are "Tall Orinocos".

Also, here is a photo I shot yesterday of my Orinoco Fruit. It first bloomed the last week in June.The stalk has 29 fingers. Should be ripe pretty soon.

I LOVE the pics of your back yard. Would you mind sharing where you live? I want so much to grow 'real' bananas instead of my little pink ones. I am in central south carolina

I live in North Alabama! In your Zone, you could raise some beautiful Banana Trees!! I just have to dig them up and store them, in my out bldg but it's worth the trouble.
