Musa ?

    (It was sold as Veinte Cohol but probably a different variety) It overwintered in the house. I separated it's pups and accidentally damaged the top of the stem and had to cut it back down to about 5 feet tall.

Musa Velutina 

    I puchased this in Miami this Spring. I think it could have been mislabeled and is instead Veinte Cohol. Time will tell!

Musa Siam Ruby

    This was purchased from a local nursery last May. It did okay indoors but it has struggled outside. It was also very challenging to start last year and really needs heat to get its footing.

    This was it's first winter and although it was mild, it did die to the ground.
