In early December, I purchased 5 new banana varieties.
They are Dwarf Cavendish, Double Mahoi, Dwarf Cuban Red, Dwarf Orinico, and Ice Cream. Along with the 2 Dwarf Namwah and Raja Puri, I now have 8 plants in my collection.

Here is a photo of the Dwarf Cavendish and Cuban Red.

The Double Mahoi:

By purchasing the dwarf varieties, I am hoping be able to house the bananas through maturity and bearing.

Sandra, I plan on doing the same in my greenhouse with the dwarf cavendish, double mahoi, and dwarf cuban red. Where did you get your plants from. Good Luck.

Morphine,

I got them from a guy in Florida. I'll send you his link.

Check for PM with personal news.
