Digging in my garden
BAG A BANANA
August 21, 2009THERE are several hands of bananas on the stand of banana trees I have in my semi-tropical coastal back yard. One of the joys of moving from the Central West to a warmer region was that I could grow a greater variety of fruits and veggies. I haven’t yet had success with the bananas but was told that if you cut the flower off and put a plastic bag over the hands, the bananas will continue to grow and ripen. Here’s hoping. In the meantime we’ve all admired the sculptural beauty that is the banana flower.
