Hola- I grew banana trees in Atlanta, Ga for years, but I had to protect th=
em during the cold nonths; now that I live in South Georgia, they stay outs=
ide all year.
The ones in Atlanta flowered every year, and I had fruit every year, and he=
re too!
How cold does it get there?

to Texas (Houston Area) and was wondering if they can be grown there
also. I would love to give it a try. How long does it take to bear
fruit and can it be grown in a container.
Thanks

I'm not sure how long it would take to produce bananas.
Most people in the Houston area have them planted in the ground.
I always had them planted but never got bananas.
That could have been because the dogs kept pulling off the leaves.

Hi

I am from a banana producing country. We even export bananas worldwide. I w=
ish I could send you a young banana tree for planting but I know that your =
country won't allow its entry.
Banana tree bears fruit in less than a year. I doubt if it will bear fruit =
if it is grown in a container.

Most banana trees I have seen that planted here in Tyler, TX are the nonbea=
ring fruit ones. The are planted outside and get rather large.
I have also seen ones you can order that do produce that are grown in a pot=

If you can grow non-fruit bearing bananas in Texas, I am sure you can grow =
fruit bearing ones. If you can take care of shipping and can obtain quarant=
ine permit, I can send you at least 3 varieties that will bear fruit in les=
s than a year.
