It has been one and a half years since my last post on my Misi Luki Banana Tree.  If you want to read all  posts on my Misi Luki Banana Tree CLICK HERE.  I aquired this Banana Tree from my buddy Brandan.  We broke off a pup from his and transplanted it into my yard.  It is finally producing Bananas!  Now I have two Banana Trees producing.  This is great, I love to see my hard work pay off.  Here are some pictures of the Misi Luki that I took on 9-27-2009.

This Banana Tree has really jumped up in height. 



This is the boot begining to open.


This is another view of the newly forming Banana boot.



I hope you enjoyed this post. See you again next time!!

I was over at my buddy Brandans house yesterday when we decided it was time to remove the pups from his Misi Luki Banana Tree. He had I think 5 Misi Luki pups and we dug them out and potted them. You can read his post by clicking here and you can see the pictures of the process that we used.

I ended up coming home with 1 of the Misi Luki pups to plant in my yard. The little guy looks down right now but he will be back real soon. The Misi Luki Banana is at it's best when grown in full sun light. There are plenty of reasons why the Misi Luki Banana is of the favorites of Bananas, I might even go as far as to say it ranks #1!! Here are a few of the reasons: The Misi Luki Banana is highly resistant to disease, the major diseases they are susceptible to are Panama Disease and Black Sigatoka ( a leaf spot disease ). The Misi Luki Banana grows on average 10-12 feet tall and is very wind tolerant. The bananas are around 4 inches in length and are packed with a smooth creamy flavor making it an excellent dessert.

Here are a few pictures of my new addition to my Banana collection!!!
