Nope, but I'm going to keep an eye on this thread because I'd like to get a couple, too....

Are you looking for an Ornamental Banana tree or a regular one? If Ornamental, just go online. They have large selection and would tell you which one will survive our area, which is coded 7 if I'm not mistaken. If you want a regular one, there's a house next to Greenview Elem in Chancellors Run road that has some banana trees.

Yeah, I saw her out there transplanting a few. Had one in her hand as I drove by.
I could order them, but I just figured someone would have them for sale locally.
Not a long enough growing season for a fruiting tree. I used to have a bunch of them, but they were in pots. Got tired of lugging the pots inside in the winter.

I (itsbob) just ordered a bunch of Blueberry bushes from them to see how they do. Checked the review sites and they have many bad reviews, but they also have a good share of good reviews. Figured I'd try them for some cheaper blueberry bushes first before I hit them up for mature pear trees.
Their selection seems pretty cool.. I've never seen a purple banana before.
Wentworth had them last week, although I went to the one in Prince Frederick which may be further than you want to drive. We've had ours for 3 years now, it's ridiculously huge. We always cut it all the way down in October and mulch over it. Ours has gone from 2 "stalks" to 30. They grow so fast!

Thanx, might be worth the trip.
The ones I had were always making new shoots, no place at that time to go with them. I need something to fill in a blank spot in front of the house.

Sure, if you want to part with one! That would be terrific!

No problem. I can dig it up this weekend and get it to you.
Sounds good! We'll work out when and where later this week.

The website is taking a while to load. I want a pink banana and a pink pineapple! I had the most beautiful pink pineapple years ago and baby daddy killed it by accident.

I bought 2 last year at Wentworth's in Charlotte Hall. They were supposed to be hardy to -20F but they didn't make it thru the winter (they were planted close to our house).
