Royal Lavendar Musa bloom & fruit
That is soooo pretty! Congratulations! Do you know how they taste?
That's really pretty!
AnaM... this type is an ornamental not edible. The little nanners are about the size of a very thick thumb.
Thanks Cala
is that one I gave donna she gave to you? I gave someone a garbage bag full of them at the trade day in fl...
ely
No, this is one I've had since my Jacksonville days...
MzM it's a lovely colour. I'm having a bit of zone envy here.
Linda
Just beautiful!!
I love them nanas.
Beautiful color!
How tall is that cutie?
Ric
thanks all!
Ric, this one remains fairly on the small size. In the pot it is probably little over 6' including the bloom spike.
duh... I just returned from a trip to the swamp.. and this banana is about 4 1/2 feet tall.. I guess I wouldn't make a very good eyewitness to a crime.. LOL
That is so pretty! My three year old was looking and said it was pretty. She didn't believe you had bananas though because they are purple. LOL
They are so cute. Do they come in pink too??Your swamp is quite the growing bed for tropicals.
The swamp is a great place for tropicals.. I even noted a heliconia coming back from our freeze.. can you believe that. My falling trees episode from the other day just missed my Chinese Yellow and Royal lavender by inches!! whew....
MzM, heliconia coming back is amazing! I'm still crying over my variegated one that I lost last winter. waaaaaah!
