I sowed a bunch of banana seeds in february, Itinerans, Yunnannensis and a few others. My luck with Musa, and Ensete has been horrible. Out of a guestimate of 200 seeds, ive managed to get 3 plants, 2 died, and one got attacked by red spidermite, and is only now healthy, but looks horrid.

But, today, somehow I managed to sprout an Itinerans. The Burmese Blue kind is apparently really rare!

Pic to come soon!

Congrats Jesse.
Low germination rates are such a bummer.
