Took a ride over to the BF&CG Sunday and found the banana grove looking pretty good, but I suspect it is not being watered or fertilized like it should be. Anyway, I said in a previous message that I would post the pictures. The bananas pictured were the only varieties fruiting so far, but I am sure others will bloom shortly. I may have mentioned earlier, but it bears repeating here, it is my understanding that that area experienced temperatures in the neighborhood of 18-19 degrees, so it gives you an idea of some of the varieties that will take the cold. In addition to the ones posted here, I have Ice Cream and Dwarf Namwah at home, which survived our winter here (24 degrees) and are growing well in the summer heat.
I think I must have reached the limit for images on this post. I have one or two more that I might post later.
