The tree of the Parthenocarpic variety For the starting of the discussion, let it suffice to know that the banana plant is a herb that’s rather large in size; it grows from an under-ground stem called and the trunk is a form created actually by the leaves. Fruits arrive from the large flower spike with numerous individual flowers, after which, the plant dies, only to be replaced by the sprouts from the same rhizome. The banana plant is a tree of the Parthenocarpic (fruits develop without fertilization or seeds) variety and hence reproduces asexually; it also prevents the mingling of genetic traits.

Banana Plant Care: Just like any other thing, it’s the base i.e. soil that’s considered the first priority for growing banana. A well draining mixture of soil can be obtained by adding 20% of Perlite to it; however, the soil shouldn’t be heavy and the banana rhizome must be sown upright with the roots well covered. A proper banana plant care requires water and fertilizers to be added at the same time; the plants being heavy feeders, fertilizers are to be applied in a rather light manner. A balanced fertilizer i.e. the ones with three numbers on the label are just right for the purpose; watering must occur at regular intervals or when the soil would dry to a half-inch depth. Twelve hours of bright daylight is essential and so is constant warmth and high humidity; at night, the ideal temperature would be 67F.

Azalea bush is the popular flowering bush and foundation plant, with bright spring blooms. They are a member of Rhododendron family but the difference between the Rhododendron plant and an Azalea plant is that the Azalea is a deciduous bush. It sheds its leaves in the fall.

But the Rhododendron plant is evergreen. Azalea bush is also smaller in height, leaves, and blooms. In spring the flowers come out in white, lavender, bright orange, gold, red and purple colors.
Azalea Plant shrub: The Azalea plant shrub can grow in height from two to eight foot. A low lying area, or one protected by a building or a hedgerow is a good choice for growing Azalea shrubs. Flowering shrubs can provide the best landscape with eye-opening hedges. Azaleas shrubs grow slowly and rarely need pruning. To maintain a certain size or to increase the density of the growth, you can prune them immediately after they’ve completed flowering.

Avocado is usually not grown from a seed in commercial orchards. However, avocado can be easily grown as a houseplant from the seed. Growing an avocado plant in your home can be a lot of fun, but you need to be careful because growing a plant needs a lot of patience and a proper environment. To grow an avocado plant from the seed, first remove the pit from the center and wash it under cool, running water. Do not use soap or hot water. Wipe away the remaining fruit from the seed gently with your fingers. Then blot the seed dry on a paper towel.

Push three toothpicks into the thickest part of the pit carefully, about ½” deep. Suspend the seed over a glass filled with water. Always keep an eye on the level of the water covering the base of the pit. It should be immersed in about an-inch deep water. In case the water is below the required level, carefully refill the glass without splashing any water.

The glass should be then placed on a bright windowsill. The pit will split open in about three to six weeks and a stem will sprout from the top. The roots will grow from the base. After the stem grows to a height of five to six inches, pinch out the top set of leaves and wait for another two to three weeks until new leaves and roots appear. Now take the young sapling, stem and roots, out of the glass and place it in a large flowerpot, filled with enriched soil. The flowerpot should be kept in a place that receives ample sunlight.

Conditions required for nurturing an avocado plant into a tree: The avocado plant needs a climate devoid of frost and wind, to grow into a sturdy tree. In case there is frost, the fruit drops from the tree. Avocado plants need well-aerated soil, more than 1 m deep, to grow well. The water should not be saline or the yield reduces.Sprouting an avocado plant from the pit: The inside of the avocado holds an added bonus, the pit of the fruit, out of which a new avocado plant can be grown. To sprout the pit or seed, it is taken out whole from the fruit and washed and dried. Finally, with the help of toothpicks is kept half afloat in a glass of water until the stem and roots sprout. All this is easy, however should be aware that the broad end is considered the base and it should always be immersed in water. The pointed end is considered the top and should always stay afloat. You can log on to the Internet and check out the pictures depicting the sprouting of an avocado plant from a seed.
