Re: Musa “Orange” has flowered
It certainly lives up to it's name. Beautiful flower.
Re: Musa “Orange” has flowered
Dave yes it is the unknown from Simon, I’m going to post some pics of the flower on the B.Org and see if we can get a positive ID on this one.
I have a couple more that are a little taller and haven’t flowered yet so perhaps next year for them.
I over wintered 5 in the loft with temps down to 0c. and lost the stems on 2 but it was a long winter, I’m sure if I had brought them out of the loft in Feb they would have all survived… so it’s reasonably cold tolerant for an ornamental nana.
Rob it was bought from Amulree as a pup.

Do you have heat in the winter or isolate a section of it?

Hi Gilian, Would you be interested in swapping a Sanguinea pup for a M.orange pup! I would also send you a M.zaifui pup too.bananaking29 wrote:Tony,
