elongated half pieces, dipped in Honey or Syrup..the red ones are even more colorful.

Anyone ever tell you R Crowe looks like you

Banana rum sounds like a great idea to me ...😁👍

I live in South Australia. My daughter gave me a banana tree for Mother's Day last year. It is growing well. I recently gave it blood and bone and sugar cane mulch.
I'm concerned because my daughter was told by the nursery she bought it from that it grows up to 5 metres high. Is there any way of cutting it back to keep it at a reasonable height?

beautiful land, well done

My bananas in San Diego, which get very neglected and have no steady irritation, grow amazing

Are there bannana plants which dont get higher than 2 Meters i want to grow them on my balcony
In Germany

A glut of bananas can be fermented into alcohol, and if legal distilled into liquor, which can be drunk, used as a fuel or as rubbing alcohol.

Looked like a Ninja chopping that narna up mate love your work

My tip: it's often said you can grow bananas in a large tub/container. You absolutely can, but taller types like blue java get so big that when the fruit starts forming it can tip over depending on the angle, so be ready to put up supports!

Thanks for sharing

I’m down south and we have amazing bananas

I would use some to make more trees if I can

Banana blossom is also etable , Sir .

it's true thanks very much

All I have noticed in Maryland USA banana plants does not seem to produce banana so what is your suggestion guidelines please show us in your video

My family's banana glut is solved with yeasted banana chocolate swirl bread, kuih, milkshakes, and all the other tried-and-true banana recipes. I really like your covering technique!

I love bananas 🍌 😂

I would love to grow bananas! we can grow the plant but not the fruit as the UK is too cool

💚💚💚💚💚

Pressure cooked banana

Thank you so much! I use my extra bananas to make banana chip in my dehydrator as well as freeze them for smoothies or smoothie bowls. I make a delicious raw vegan Banofee Pie! 💚🍌

Yeah bananas will not grow in cold climates even in the summer will not grow

Yeah that's a lie but nana does not like to grow and cold climates even in the summer

I harvested my first spray of bananas but they have banana tip rot... can you do a video on preventing or managing this?

Just got me a super dwarf Banana... 3-5ft when fruiting.
Uppotted it to a 7gal fabric pot, now all I gotta do is wait 6 months lol IT's already 2+ft tall.

I also have a little banana tree, it is still in a container because here in Hungary winters are quite cold. My friend gave it to me 2 years ago, she has 2 trees in her backyard, and despite the cold winter they survive, though they never managed to ripen the fruits.

hello......love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At witch stage do one remove the flower to enhance the ripening of the fruit..

I throw the whole banana in the freezer when I need a banana I let it defrost. In baking a frozen banana gives a deep color to the bread. It’s yummy ! smoothies and fruit for babies it last and I always have them on hand. Banana chips are dehydrated for people to munch on. I’m gonna try a tree on my farm to see what happens so I’m studying up with all the videos. Thanks for the info you gave many tips others never mentioned.

I'd make Banana Bread & Banana ice cream (Ben & Jerry's Chunky Monkey) 💛🍌

😞 we can't grow banyanas in UK, The plant never reaches maturity outdoors.

Man,plzz sent me a rhizome of that plant

If you very much interested in utilizing Banana plant, then you can make cloth for tops or bags out of Banana fibers.

Tip 6: After harvesting the Banana, leave the plant as it is, so that all the nutrients of the harvested plant will be given to new plant(sucker) near by. after few months the harvested Banana plant will dry and collapse, thus it forms mulching for the new plants.

The worst scenario. It never fruits....

I first wanted banana plants/herbs for the beautiful add to a summer landscape so remind yourself the initial purpose.
Most say a good banana plant in 5 years can or will produce a yield. Eh. Not true yet never be discouraged! 😊 As long as you water it/ feed it/ cut it down to ground level then put mulch (straw, bale hay, broken up brown materials like leaves) well over its top area when it gets cold in your zone you soon will gather suckers. EVERYONE wants one. Sell it.!!!!😊

Back to my 12 foot tall or 3.8ish mtr "plant/herb" still isn't maturing to fruit stage. Bananas eat and need a lot of added nutrients biweekly. Or......,,,,,,,, You only have an ornamental plant.....

To wrap it up. Never be discouraged with bananas. I've had a 17 year huge plant/herb and it finally fruited at year 18

Hi I have a cavendish should I be removing every sucker as it grows ?

You just have to be in the right state that’s it.

😂😂 the tree though it massive 😂😂

here in Texas, we'd make a big batch of banana pudding. Look it up and try it!

I planted a banana but nothing happened. Should I have peeled it first?

Will the growth of pups hinder the growth of the main plant? Like should I cut away the pups until main plant has fruited?

Also been told that you need pups to come up to replace main plant as a tree only fruits once.

Banana is my favorite fruit

Hello Mark! So the tree will die after it gives fruit? Can I use the shoots to grow another tree? Thank you so much for your wonderful videos!

I use the peels to wrap tabaco or weed

Banana flower, young banana plant are all ediible, they're nice to make salad

Another great video.
We have our first fruit on our tree. We have about 4 suckers on our original tree.
This was very helpful. Thanks 😀

My friend. You are so positive!!. I'm a big league container Gardner in USA with like 7 pots.....I know.....huge.

So do you grow blue Java banana? If so can you review?

Very useful tips. Trying to grow them from seeds here in southern England just for fun.
