I am so pleased to see that all your work in the autumn has paid off and that the banana circle has survived winter!

[@TheWildlandsGarden]

Thanks I'm relieved and pleased although I have a feeling some of the Cavendish banana may have rotted, won't know for sure until they are fully unwrapped

[@solarlifeportugal657]

A great video. I absolutely love how well your banana has grown. Seeing as it is spring maybe we can do a bit of a plant swap or we can buy some off you. It would be lovely to have you around for another meal or meet up next time you are off for a shopping trip to Auchan. Well done, a great video and most of all real abundance and joy from our wonderful land in Central Portugal.

Thanks to you both 🌻
Always up for plant swaps.... What ya got?
Or for sales... Bit too early for banana as, still might be frosts. Weve also got lots of new plants being grown and propagating 🌻🌿🌱🌞
Hope you're both well.... How's the greenhouse?

What do you think?
Have you tried something similar?
Can you get banana and other tender tropicals through a cold winter?

[@sammie44]

I do have to say, you are encouraging us….. who knows we might just try.
Would banana growing work in the Great White North 🇨🇦? They just might. 🤔 😊
Love your positivity, enthusiasm and commitment to your garden.
Much success to you! 🌱 🍌

Thanks @pedromartins321 🙏
Definitely worth a try! 🍌
Some banana are hardier than others for example musa, basjoo which have inedible fruit but you can use the stems in cooking. But the Cavendish will grow in pots or you can wrap like mine. Let me know if you try it and happy gardening 🍌🌞🌻☀️🌱

[@tiagooliveira4972]

I'll try the banana circle this spring, in north of portugal

[@TheWildlandsGarden]

BTW well have banana, plants, for sale in May if you need some for your circle 🙏🌞🍌🍌🍌
