trikus says... I found a much larger permited banana list on the DPI site ,seems to have vanished now but I have saved it somewhere , the Blue Sky list cover what they sell and most likely what DPI want us to grow being the most disease resistant . Here in Tully where Blue Sky are we have hasd a horrible year with constant rain and no real sunshine so growth of the little nana plants could have been set back . | About the Author Trikus Tully 27th November 2010 10:16am #UserID: 930 Posts: 749 View All Trikus's Edible Fruit Trees |

trikus says... LOts of info on obscure banana cultivars I found from bananas.org , apart from a very active forum of mainly American growers a young guy Gabe really knows his stuff and has set up a wiki . I noticed Humphris has another list of bananas they have had ,, one was Rajapuri .. here is what the wiki had to say ; Description The 'Rajapuri' is small at 6 to 8 feet tall. This plant that originated from India is a first choice for landscaping. The plant is totally green, has a very thick stem and stands up very well to wind. The leaves are wider than those of most bananas, growing up to 3 feet wide. It is the best plant to grow in marginal areas or where a grower does not intend to put much care into the cultivation of bananas. The heads of fruit are of moderate size with medium sized fruit. This tasty banana chokes easier than Orinoco. It is very cold hardy, and the leaves will not turn yellow even with a light frost. It will grow and produce even in the poorest soil. Not recommended for South Florida due to Black Sigatoka. The fruit can be used fresh or green. * Genetic Group - AAB | About the Author Trikus Tully 27th November 2010 10:20am #UserID: 930 Posts: 749 View All Trikus's Edible Fruit Trees |

David01 says... Hi bzh, Dwarf banana is about 2m to 2.5m vs standard about 5m tall. I have one red Dacca in 100l pot, one dwarf Cavendish and few standards in ground. The one in ground grow much better as bananas demand a lot spaces for their root system. Photo show my dwarf Cavendish which is expected to have fruit next year. Cheers
