Brugmansia from seed

Hi

South wales , in between Cardiff and Swansea

I have also learnt the difference with Dactura { flowers are upright}and Brugmansia hang down

my musa is easily over 12 years old .. and multi stemmed

 

Japanese Fiber Banana / Musa Basjoo is hardy I believe. They have them in Kew but they might dig them up, not sure. I have seen them in Germany where they cover them in leaves when they die back and thats all.

 

I can't remember which I grew @pete though sikkimensis seems plausible - I was probably being unreasonably optimistic
@Adam I - just don't encourage me... I'll be trying that next!
Alright @Spruce - close enough to me. Which one do you grow?

 

Must sikkimensis only survived one winter with me, I'd say it's more tender than basjoo which grows best from divisions.

I bought the one called 'ever red' or something like that recently I think it might be a form of sikki.

 

Musa bajoo

 

Blast it! You have all now convinced me to try Musa basjoo!
