But you'll have to join to see the good part (the pictures). Sorry!

Refer me if you want (Type Taylor when you join as a Referral)

Anyway, the plants in the pictures had moved a long way before Winter where I dug them up and put them in my basement.

Here is the thread for that:

Wes, I do have Lasiocarpa. Pups extreme amounts that I pulled off before winter and killed. Almost a nuisance because it doesn't get a trunk as fast as Musa but if you want money, this is the one. Sells for 20$ just like most Musa except a few.

Thanks Dean!
