The listing, Make mom's garden better then the rest! Banana Lotus. has ended.

Cultivated since antiquity, this rare dwarf banana is considered the most precious of sacred flowers by the Dai and Bulang Buddhist ethnic minorities of China’s Southern Yunnan province. It represents the embodiment of charm and kindness. While actively cultivated, it is believed to be extinct in the wild. The plant gets its name from the large yellow upright flower produced from the top of the leafless pseudostem. Flowering lasts for 6 to 9 months. The plant is a natural dwarf, reaching 4 to 6 feet high. Unlike other bananas, the Golden Lotus Banana will thrive in areas with a distinct winter season. They are hardy to USDA climate zone 7 and possibly to zones 5 and 6.

This Auction is for 5 seeds. These seeds are not easy to find. nor cheap. They cost around 1 to 2 dollars a piece, PLUS your are going to pay $5 to $15 in shipping.

Gin bonus is 10 seeds!! (These are cold stored and will come already in their soil. They are ready to go.) 25 Rose of Sharon and a special gift! I ALWAYS add other seeds and gifts to all my loyal GIN customers.
When you use the GIN you will not just receive a legal size envelope with a stamp and some seeds. You get a zip lock baggie (small) full of the best soil possible for the seeds. The seeds have been cold stored for 8 weeks. You will get a tracking number to track your package from the time it leaves my hands. The are ready to plant and grow. This up's my shipping cost quit a bit. That is why the GIN is higher then without them being cold stored.

This rare and extinct in the wild banana lotus is one of the most adored plants in all of the world.

Once it blooms it can actually be cut off and survive for a full month without water on display. They bloom for over six months at a time if left intact. This does not produce banana's:)
Worshipped by the monks in China these plants actually have shrines built for them.
