Banana Update

My Musa Basjoo is still flowering nearly 10 months on

from this in september 2005




to this in May 2006





to today











Is it really going to go a whole year in flower ?

 

WICKED

 

Must get me some of those chicken pellets. Quite a beast there BM

 

I know it just keeps going. I have another one ripe for flowering this year so I am hoping they overlap. he he :D

 

Should you get to eating a home grown banana(!!!) think with virtue of your small ecological footprint. I feel blinded by your emerging halo already.

 

It has done most of its flowering October to begining of May in the banana house which I build around them each year. Because it is so well sealed the flying insects don't get to pollenate, so my bananas are a little under developed. The musa banana is only for ornamental and livestock consumption :( But I do wear a halo for planting 20 new trees in my garden, I think my carbon emissions are more than taken care of :D

Early May 2006

Mr Gordon Bennett...What have I been missing these last few days! Still after the chicken poo. In truth I can't forget the horrors of 6X. Antisocial. Even with it I couldn't manage the musculature visible here. Go Banananman!!!

 

He with the invisible footprint. Must be some kind of haiku in there...

 

? Im not up on Japanese Poetry but I am Bananaman and I fly, no need to make footprints
