growing bananas indoors -- is this for real?
Hello,
I've seen several websites claiming that you can grow certain varieties
of bananas indoors as houseplants. These plants are said to be 5 feet
(1.7 m) or shorter, and able to tolerate houehold temperatures.
1. Is this for real?
2. What about transportation? Suppose I buy a corm through the mail.
Does it hurt for a corm to freeze (in the mail), the same it would hurt
the full plant? (I live in Wisconsin, and the temps today are below
zero Fahrenheit. I can wait until June, I suppose, to order.)
3. What else do I need to know?
Thank you very much!
