    Nope, I think the bananas are used as agricultural feed in their native lands.

    :cool: Cool. The Acacia likes a protected spot and will burn with frost. But that hasn't stopped mine growing from the 3 foot pup to the 12 foot monster it currently is. (3 years planted).

    Can't wait to see your garden planted up next year ;)

    BM :D

    I would do some pics, but the camera batteries have gone flat (AGAIN!!!! :mad: ) and just got myself a new free upgraded phone, but haven't had the time to work out how to use it....
    We can't get over how massive the borders are.... :eek: :eek: :eek: There is one corner by where the acacia tree is going which is ear-marked for my Banana Grove... right next to the trampoline!!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    Oh - the baby colocasia is very sick.... :confused: , so I am holding off cutting the others off for now...... watch this space....

    My garden is only 50x25 feet pretty small by most standards. But every inch is planted ;)
