Brother has a plant. He’s produced for two consecutive years (cut the producing plant and have the next pup “take over”)
He’s given me a pup, but it isn’t mature yet and is sitting in a pot in my backyard.
He and his children love the bananas. I haven’t tasted one yet.

Fast growing trees. It’s an expensive site, but it’s the only place he could find it.
