‘Praying Hands’ is an interesting and unique banana, whose name comes from the fact that two adjacent “hands” of bananas are fused together, giving the appearance of praying hands.  The fruit is very enjoyable, with great texture and a hint of vanilla flavor.  It is a taller variety with bunches developing at 10-14 ft from the ground.  They are productive and hardy against wind, pests, and diseases.

Latin name - Musa x paradisiaca

Bananas are one of the easiest and most exciting fruit producing "trees" to grow in Florida!  Botanically speaking they are not a tree, but rather a large herbaceous plant. Most varieties will produce their first bunch about 12 months after planting, with routine harvests every 3-6 months at maturity.  Banana plants are beautiful in the landscape, and can be fit into smaller spaces than most trees.  Overall, bananas may in fact be our #1 favorite fruiting plant to grow for many reasons, including their resiliency, year-round fruit production in South Florida, and the vibrant energy they offer to any landscape.

Banana plants as we know them are the result of thousands of years of human selective breeding efforts, in an effort to improve their usefulness as a food crop.  As the Latin name Musa x paradisiaca suggests, modern Bananas are a hybrid of two original wild species:  Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana.  These originated in two different regions of Southeast Asia: M. acuminata from the tropical islands, and M. balbisiana from the mainlands at higher elevation.  The two species naturally hybridized, and eventually variations with seedless fruit were discovered, forming the foundation for the Banana that we know and love today.  

Banana plants grow from an underground root mass called a corm.  The roots are very shallow and grow quickly, seeking water and nutrients in the soil.  When planting Bananas in your yard, it’s important to note that they do best when fertilized, watered, and mulched well.  

After growing for a period of time, Banana plants will flower and produce a large “bunch” of fruit at the top of the plant.  After several months, when the fruit is mature and ready to be picked, the entire fruit-bearing stalk is cut down, and the fruit is harvested.  During this time, small “pups” form at the base of the plant, and grow quickly.  After the main fruiting stem is harvested and cut down, the next-largest pup will grow to be its successor, fruiting once again within the next few months.  From the time of initial planting to first harvest, with good cultivation, it can take an average of 12 months for fruit to develop and mature, and after initial fruiting you can expect a harvest every 3-6 months.  The Banana plant will produce additional pups which can be dug up and removed, and replanted elsewhere. We recommend, in order to keep your banana plant productive and vigorous, to limit each plant to 3-4 pups at most and remove the excess.   Banana plants do require a special type of maintenance which is different from other fruiting trees, but are quite rewarding in exchange and we consider them one of the best fruiting plants to grow in South Florida.  We have more Banana plants than any other type of fruit planted at our farm.

Banana cultivars exhibit a vast diversity of growth habits, fruiting tendencies, flavor and sugar/starch levels, and visual appearance.  Plantains are actually the same species, but are put into a different category due to the larger, starchier fruit which is mostly eaten cooked, either green or ripe.   Our collection of both Bananas and Plantains has grown over the years, and we have learned to appreciate each variety for its unique characteristics.  

We categorize Banana varieties by a few metrics.

Height:  The height at which the fruit typically hangs.  Leaves usually extend higher.

Production:  Whether the plant is a heavy or light producer, and frequency of harvest.

Fruit quality:  Overall taste, and typical use of the fruit (i.e. fresh eating “dessert” bananas, or cooking bananas)

Hardiness:  Overall toughness and vigor of the plant, including wind resistance and resistance to pests and disease. This does not include cold tolerance– all bananas are damaged by freezing temperatures, however some will recover quicker than others.

Check the individual listings for each variety for a fuller understanding of each banana and its various qualities.  We are continuously evaluating the plants at our farm and will update these listings as new information comes to light.

This should be interesting! She’s gonna run and then what’s his face is gonna grab her. I’m worried! Wow that was a great book and cliffhanger! Loving this!

Baby bumps and bodyguards
Format: Kindle
Dark, emotional, and unexpectedly tender, Not Ready is an omegaverse romance that delivers found family feels, fierce protectiveness, and a very pregnant heroine who refuses to break. Vale’s on the run from a stalker, but lands in the arms of three private security alphas, cue the swoony tension, fake marriage twist, and slow-burn heat. It’s a little gritty, a little soft, and a whole lot addictive. If you love protective alphas, high stakes, and heroines with quiet strength, this one’s a must-read.

Strong Omegaverse Comfort and a Attention Grabbing Plot
Format: Kindle
Jillian West never misses when it comes to Omegaverse, and Not Ready is no exception. This story was the perfect blend of cozy comfort and emotional depth while still delivering a strong plot. Vale is such a powerful heroine, she is strong, capable, and determined but I love that she still allows her pack to love and take care of her. It’s that balance of independence and vulnerability that makes her so relatable. The relationship dynamics were amazing: Bishop is steadfast and completely head over heels, Mercy is skeptical but protective in his own way, and Holt is the hesitant one whose slow fall is so satisfying to watch unfold. The romance hits that sweet spot between insta-love and cautious build, keeping me hooked the entire way through. And that ending. Oh my god, the cliffhanger! I need the next book in this duet immediately.

Interesting
Format: Kindle
So I will say I enjoyed the story, for sure had its moments where it dragged but it was a great story. I really liked that omegas picked their alphas/make the pack. Normally the Alphas make it and the omega fits in with them which is great but I enjoyed this new version where all the power basically went to the omega. It was a nice change of pace. I can admit some of the weird bedroom stuff with her being pregnant was odd, it’s really not hard to do stuff when pregnant (I know I’ve had two and it’s normal and even encouraged at the end especially if you want the baby out). But I like the story as a whole and will read the second, I do hope the next one isn’t dragged bc it stopped being action or tense after she met her alphas and I don’t think it was brought up or properly done when they tried to do it. More sweet after she left.
