Variegated bananas are on the way to the shop

Canarius | Thursday April 4th, 2013 |

Striped Bananas and Extra Dwarf Bananas ! They all produce edible fruits and make great eccentric ornamental plants.

On April 8th we will finally check in the stock of variegated bananas for Spring 2013. We will know the exact varieties of  banana trees that will be available for the shop. These plants will be offered for sale by the end of April, which is by far the best time of the year to start a banana tree in a non-tropical climate.

We are waiting for different types of Cavendish banana trees with variegated leaves and also extra dwarf types of banana trees.

These plants are raised in-vitro here in the Canary Islands. They correspond to the best commercial cultivars of edible bananas, such as Dwarf Cavendish, Cavendish Brier, Cavendish Grand Naine and others. At times we could get also Orinoco/Bluggoe/Topocho or Dwarf Red Banana Trees.

Now you can buy new types of fruiting plants in the shop at www.canarius.com.  We have uploaded several new species.  Some of them are very interesting for the people who grow exotic fruits in Europe. They come from high elevations so they can grow in cooler  conditions.

Four species of exotic fruits are really interesting. They are now available and they are becoming tall – all of them are 50-80 cm in height. All are very fast growing and some are very rare in cultivation.
