    And how has everybody been?.Hav'nt been on for a long long time,my question is,I have just brought a red abyssinian banana and thought I would find out from you lovely people how to look after it.At the moment I hove potted it up in a very large pot,and used the same compost it was in when I got it [just added to it]and am giving plenty of water and feeding with chicken pellets.Being new to this side of gardening can you tell me if I am doing it right or wrong

    In advance can I give my thanks and it's lovely to be back with you all.

    Seems you are doing everything fine. Pot growing is good as it will need to be stored frost free and they don't mind being a little pot bound.
