‘Praying Hands’ is an interesting and unique banana, whose name comes from the fact that two adjacent “hands” of bananas are fused together, giving the appearance of praying hands.  The fruit is very enjoyable, with great texture and a hint of vanilla flavor.  It is a taller variety with bunches developing at 10-14 ft from the ground.  They are productive and hardy against wind, pests, and diseases.

Latin name - Musa x paradisiaca

Bananas are one of the easiest and most exciting fruit producing "trees" to grow in Florida!  Botanically speaking they are not a tree, but rather a large herbaceous plant. Most varieties will produce their first bunch about 12 months after planting, with routine harvests every 3-6 months at maturity.  Banana plants are beautiful in the landscape, and can be fit into smaller spaces than most trees.  Overall, bananas may in fact be our #1 favorite fruiting plant to grow for many reasons, including their resiliency, year-round fruit production in South Florida, and the vibrant energy they offer to any landscape.

Banana plants as we know them are the result of thousands of years of human selective breeding efforts, in an effort to improve their usefulness as a food crop.  As the Latin name Musa x paradisiaca suggests, modern Bananas are a hybrid of two original wild species:  Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana.  These originated in two different regions of Southeast Asia: M. acuminata from the tropical islands, and M. balbisiana from the mainlands at higher elevation.  The two species naturally hybridized, and eventually variations with seedless fruit were discovered, forming the foundation for the Banana that we know and love today.  

Banana plants grow from an underground root mass called a corm.  The roots are very shallow and grow quickly, seeking water and nutrients in the soil.  When planting Bananas in your yard, it’s important to note that they do best when fertilized, watered, and mulched well.  

After growing for a period of time, Banana plants will flower and produce a large “bunch” of fruit at the top of the plant.  After several months, when the fruit is mature and ready to be picked, the entire fruit-bearing stalk is cut down, and the fruit is harvested.  During this time, small “pups” form at the base of the plant, and grow quickly.  After the main fruiting stem is harvested and cut down, the next-largest pup will grow to be its successor, fruiting once again within the next few months.  From the time of initial planting to first harvest, with good cultivation, it can take an average of 12 months for fruit to develop and mature, and after initial fruiting you can expect a harvest every 3-6 months.  The Banana plant will produce additional pups which can be dug up and removed, and replanted elsewhere. We recommend, in order to keep your banana plant productive and vigorous, to limit each plant to 3-4 pups at most and remove the excess.   Banana plants do require a special type of maintenance which is different from other fruiting trees, but are quite rewarding in exchange and we consider them one of the best fruiting plants to grow in South Florida.  We have more Banana plants than any other type of fruit planted at our farm.

Banana cultivars exhibit a vast diversity of growth habits, fruiting tendencies, flavor and sugar/starch levels, and visual appearance.  Plantains are actually the same species, but are put into a different category due to the larger, starchier fruit which is mostly eaten cooked, either green or ripe.   Our collection of both Bananas and Plantains has grown over the years, and we have learned to appreciate each variety for its unique characteristics.  

We categorize Banana varieties by a few metrics.

Height:  The height at which the fruit typically hangs.  Leaves usually extend higher.

Production:  Whether the plant is a heavy or light producer, and frequency of harvest.

Fruit quality:  Overall taste, and typical use of the fruit (i.e. fresh eating “dessert” bananas, or cooking bananas)

Hardiness:  Overall toughness and vigor of the plant, including wind resistance and resistance to pests and disease. This does not include cold tolerance– all bananas are damaged by freezing temperatures, however some will recover quicker than others.

Check the individual listings for each variety for a fuller understanding of each banana and its various qualities.  We are continuously evaluating the plants at our farm and will update these listings as new information comes to light.

Very nice pull-out spice rack for square bottles. Mount with screws for permanence.
This Boivshi spice rack organizer is made with stainless steel, and has racks deep enough to keep your spice jars securely in place. There’s a thin plastic sheet for the bottom of each rack. Due to the shape of the racks, I recommend using square spice jars rather than round ones. My 6 ounce square jars fit well, and each rack holds 5 jars. Or you can use the smaller 4 ounce square spice jars and fit 6 jars in each rack. The 4 ounce jars will be looser and slide around more when you pull each rack out. I also recommend getting some round ingredient labels for your jar lids so you can identify contents quickly without having to lift each jar to look at the label. The stainless steel metal is thick, smooth and well attached, with nicely rounded corners. The top row is height adjustable. Each rack has its own extension mechanism. That means when you pull out a rack, it doesn’t pull out the entire row. This is especially important if you’ve used the adhesive to attach the rack to your pantry shelf or inside a cabinet as a top heavy item will pull and loosen the adhesive over time. The rack comes with mounting adhesive and wood mounting screws and its own screwdriver, another bonus for ease of installation. You can choose to mount the rack with the adhesive or the screws. My personal preference here is to attach this rack with the provided screws rather than the adhesive. With glass jars and weight that’s being pulled out over a tile floor in a pantry or over a hard countertop, having the risk of adhesive giving way is inviting disaster. So consider all the options when deciding on how to attach it. Overall, this Boivshi Spice Rack Organizer is very well made, and is a good deal at this price point. I definitely recommend it.

Expensive, but Smooth, Sturdy Spice Rack
I received the BOIVSHI Spice Rack Organizer through the Vine program, and overall I’m quite pleased with its quality. The rack feels sturdy and well-made. The metal construction has a solid, heavy-duty feel, and the chrome finish gives it a clean, modern look that works well in most kitchens. The pull-out mechanism is smooth and glides nicely. The 2-tier design is efficient and makes good use of vertical space. Installation was fairly easy and the instructions are simple enough to follow. For me, it is limited to smaller spice bottles, due to the configuration of my cabinet which limits the available height of the top tier. Also, the rack has to be secured to the surface, either with screws or adhesive mount, to prevent it from sliding around. Overall, it is well made and a practical solution for organizing spices. If your cabinet dimensions are compatible and you mostly use standard-size spice jars, it’s a solid upgrade that makes everyday cooking more convenient. However, this is a very expensive spice rack, if you compare it to similar items.

Good size, looks nice, mostly easy to put together and install
Okay I love this a lot more than I expected to. I was not extremely excited about the instructions. They come with a warning that if you have any doubts about your ability to install this, call a qualified technician. It just seemed condescending. Also, everything is printed poorly, like someone put this together in the 80's and it printed smudgingly and this is the copies from that. The only thing that this made confusing was when trying to figure out where the cabinet screws go (before I realized that was an alternative install), you really can't tell which holes they go in. Turns out they probably go in the holes covered by the pre-installed sticky PVC mat. Only other issue I had was that it comes with a screwdriver. It seems so wasteful to include something that should be in every household, especially those who buy diy things like this. But beyond that, everything else is great. It was easy to put together, it was easy to place in the cupboard, and it was easy to fill. I love that each line comes out individually. It's nice and sturdy. I tried pulling on it to test it, and the sticky was strong. I mostly loved that, even though this took up 3/4 of the shelf, I was able to fit all my small spices AND my honey AND my sprinkles. I went from 3 overflowing shelves to 2 full shelves and an almost empty one. I only have 6 items on the top. I feel super happy about this.
