Thanks Flori! It's very surprising how fast they grow. They were small in April but now they are a bit taller than me. Amazing~~~ :)

It is hard to get perspective when it is like this, maybe next time we need to get you in the shot next to them too! LOL!

Ha ha ha Tommy, if you are even as quarter as nice as you come across, you would look great! Is it difficult to grow this plant?

You're so kind, Flori! By the way, this banana (Musa basjoo) is the hardiest of all bananas, which means it's the easiest of all the bananas! You don't have to dig it up before winter. However, you need to protect it by making (a kind of) house for it with wooden pallets (or, if it's small, you can place a chimney pot or some kind) and put straw in it, then cover the top with felt (or something) to protect it from rain/snow.
