If banana plants would grow in your area they make great screens, can almost watch them grow once summer hits.
Sounds nice but not that warm here for them to survive
Gotcha, I'm 9b and they die back in the winter but pop up once spring rolls around.
Oh man now I'm high as fuck and far down banana plant YouTube videos :)
Lol enjoy, I have a grandparent that has had a patch as far back as I can remember, they don't typically put out blooms unless you're giving them a lot of fertilizer but they get 20 ft tall with semi regular watering.
Yea really cool and would survive here , will be looking into that for sure :)
Lopping off the dead parts in the spring with a machete is fun too. If you slice them just right at a diagonal angle they slowly slide off and make you feel like a samurai.
I will make my small dojo with a lady in the middle sorounded by banana plants. And a really comfy hammock or something :)
