A Snowbird in Paradise

Several years ago, we planted a couple of little "pups" of banana.  In spite of frost scares a couple of years, we soon had the first bananas.  The individual trees die after producing a stalk of bananas, but they put up more "pups" that will bear in about 2 more years.  Now we are getting two or more nice stalks of bananas every Spring.  Fortunately, at least ONE stalk ripens when our granddaughters are here for their spring break.
