I've got a papaya in AP for over a year not, not a dwarf though, I had to pus it over at an angel to keep it from growing through the greenhouse roof. I just planted two dwarf Bananas in my new grow bed as well as more papayas. Too soon to know how well they are doing yet, they are still recovering from transplant but I expect to see new growth soon. I've got Meyer Lemon and some kumquat cuttings stuck in one bed to see if they will root for me. I don't think they are technically dwarf but I expect they will be small enough to treat as dwarf plants. The kumquat tree I took the cuttings from is under 5 foot tall as is the meyer lemon shrub. Just gotta watch the thorns on those two. |

I still have papaya (what many aussies call Paw Paw but Paw Paw is a different thing here in America.) And I also have some meyer lemon still in my system. The "dwarf banana" liked AP too much and grew into a monster, there are still suckers from it in the system but I fear it's too big to stay under the greenhouse. I'll try to buy some truly tiny banana plants soon to put in. |

Links to available dwarf trees would be helpful, too!! Would love to get a dwarf avocado and dwarf banannas... Not sold locally, but if I could get them shipped in, they might do well in the GH. CB |
