A great new magazine!

This may sound like an advertisement, but it's something that I believe is simply awesome and has been a long time coming: a new quarterly publication about bananas!

It's called Bananas Quarterly. Published four times a year, the magazine contains very interesting articles from correspondents all over the world, most of which are in the U.S. BQ contains a great blend of banana history, informative articles, do-it-yourself projects, and tasty recipes. There's something in each issue of Bananas Quarterly for everyone and will capture the interest of the tropical plant enthusiast as well.

A subscription to Bananas Quarterly costs $20 USD and ensures you four issues of this great magazine! Volume 1 No. 1 has been published and is available as a digital e-zine only in Adobe PDF format. Volume No. 2 will be printed on paper made from 25% recycled material and 75% new banana fiber and mailed to your doorstep!

You can check out the Quarterly website at: http://www.bananasmagazine.com/index.html.

Sign up today and you'll get Volume 1 and the additional volumes that will follow this year. I will have an article in the next edition about the wonderful Musa velutina/dasycarpa which is commonly called the pink banana. I really believe if you like tropical plants and bananas that you'll enjoy the magazine.
