    I am a happy man - pretty much all the Musa Balbisiana seeds have germinated & two of the Musa Griersonii have germinated in three weeks in the cupboard with the boiler on the heatmat for 12 hours/day.

    Nothing from Musella Lasiocarpa as yet, but they went in a week later 'cos they spent a month in the fridge first.
