Having been to Golfland a couple of times, i see what your daughter meant
:).
Anyway, i would love to be able to find a culinary variety of bananas i
could grow here. I have seen Musa basjoo but it is just all leaves, no
fruit. A house up the street has one i believe, but it's not very tall and
just starting to recover from a freeze (i dont think they protected it).
It has a better looking offset thats growing right now.
