If it (the disease) gets to America?
Where do they grow bananas in America? Florida?
They used to grow them in La Conchita, Calif., which is on the coast just east of Carpinteria and about 10 miles west of Ventura. The owner of the banana plantation there boasted that it was the only one in the continental US. The climate at that location was apparently just right.
They grew several varieties of bananas, and they were the tastiest bananas I have ever eaten. Unfortunately, they went out of business a few years ago--probably couldn't compete with the banana republics down south.
