Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Years ago in New Orleans, my entire side yard was filled with banana "trees." They are lovely--in summer. In winter they are a holy nightmare. (Yes, I said "holy," as in how nightmarish religion can be.)
With the slightest frost, they die back to the ground and have to be cut up and hauled away. They are a royal slimy mess of a plant. And the juice from the cut plants permanently stains.
I did get occasional bunches of bananas, which was great, except people kept stealing them just as they'd be ready to harvest. I never even tasted one.
But that was New Orleans. You, enjoy!

They will have to get past my 165 pound mastiff Great Dane mix to get to my bananas
@Donto101 great! I needed one of those. ?
Bananas in 80 days??? I thought for a brief moment you were referring to mid-term elections. Then I realized this is the Garden Group. 
(I promise, that was not a political comment)

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
