Received a musa basjoo from corolla tropicals.
It's pushing its first leaf and looks very healthy.
Thanks, Ryan!

Are you going to be getting in banana pups this spring? I am specifically interested in the Petite Naine and Super Dwarf Cavendish varieties.

Nice list Ryan...wow.
No chance of Nypa fruticans or Licuala grandis, I suppose.
Sorry to be so damned picky.
