About My Edible Backyard

I think it is up to us to take some responsibility for providing for ourselves , which in turn  gives us control over the where our food comes from and what it has been sprayed with etc , and teaching our kids ,so we can get back to the basics and  get the satisfaction of being more self reliant

Mine in Sydney had flowers and new leaves completely damaged by powdery mildew in October. Did you have any trouble like this?

Just realised that you are not talking about a banana mango tree, but a banana plant, so my comment is not relevant to your plant
