Jim,
That Abyssinian is HUGE! Where did you get it from originally? I love the red/green, I think I'm gonna buy one now 😀

Thanks Z
Yea,composted cow manure-etc works wonders.
A sheltered place from the wind is best,they are very fleshy
and don't support themselves well-just ask Bill about that! 👿

I did have to replant some..
they probably came from a warm sunny g-house,then into the cold.
I got the Abyssinian off e-bay,don't recall the seller.
They don't seem to need as much heat as other Bananas...
and I guess they really aren't considered a Banana anyway.
They sure respond to the heat though!
