I'm trying to grow the William's banana and i also bought a banana pup from someone, and the guy told me, it's a Butter Banana tree...now this name does not even pop up on Google...have you ever heard of this name...do you sell different varieties of banana tree's..?
Can you advise me where i can buy a lady finger pup from..in the Cape town area ..I've called many garden centers and all the one's i asked only sell William's. Which i already got.
To be honest I have never even heard of it. I have tried doing some research but could find nothing. My guess is that the person may have given it that common name themselves or it may have been past on. I am curious to know what the fruit look and taste like? I have Musa 'Lady Finger', Musa puspanjaliae, Musa ventricosum, Musa velutina, Musa coccinea, Musa (one more I can't remember the name right now), Musa 'Williams' Musa 'Cavendish' and one other as well. Where do you live?
The Ladyfinger is an extremely common Banana in South Africa. The regular banana on dump sites or growing in open waste sites or locations is usually the Lady finger. If cared for well it is a really rewarding banana to grow. I have done a series on Banana plants, see link: ruclips.net/video/e6MaI0re-l8/видео.html
Hey there Kyaw, that is a very good question. In the video I show the process of pollination. What you need to remember is that certain species will not allow self-pollination and others are receptive to it. So it really comes down to trial and error in that regard. I crossed S. alata with S. readii hybrid in this video and seedlings are doing great.
Really nice video, my first Sarracenias are about to bloom, can't wait to pollinate them.
Good luck with the pollination. hope it goes swimmingly!
Live and learn
Part 3, coming soon...😉😀
Gabriel , Goeie-dag..ek sien op jou Granadilla/ Passionfruit video...daar staan piesang bome op die agter grond..watter soort piesang bome groei jy..
Hi Renaldo, I grow a few different varieties. I think that one may be a Lady Finger

Was that a self pollination? I have a purpurea that’s going to bloom. Is it okay to self pollinate it? Was the self pollination successfull?
