For more information, please visit http://www.queenhelene.com.
Makes skin feel soft and smooth
I'm not quite sure how I feel about this mask. I bought 2 bottles of it after hearing all the hype about the mask, but I have yet gone through a full tube. The mask does do a good job getting rid of excess oil on my skin, but I don't think I have used it enough to see the effects on my acne. The scent kind of puts me off a bit, and so I usually reach for the body shop tea tree oil one. The mask is also a little drying (just like any other acne mask you usually find). I would still recommend people to try it because the mask isn't completely terrible/useless.
When I bought this I could only find it in a huge tub. It lasted me for ages, but towards the end the product started to dry up due to being exposed to air every time I removed the lid. I avoid any drier patches on my face because it can make those areas feel very dry and tight, but it is great for oily/acne prone areas. I use this while in the bath or before I shower as it can be a bit messy when being removed. I would and do recommend it to friends, and I would repurchase if I could find it in the tube!
Love how this smells and the way it left my face feeling extremely soft and brightened. I use it once a week and look forward to it each time.
I have combination skin in the summertime so when it gets a little oily I add the mint Julep to my trouble spots only (yes it is quite drying on non-oily areas so I have learned to steer clear over the years). While it dries it's fun to scare my young son and chase him around or just sit and relax and enjoy the minty smell. When I go to wash it off I use a semi-hot moist washcloth and let it sit on my face for a bit then wipe it off. The masque comes off easier then!
Smells great and works amazing on troubled skin. I also like to use this aaa spot treatment over night on very tough cystic acne and it dries it up over night.
I have used for years when and now it is helping my teenage son with acne...an oldie but goodie!
I'm not so sure about this one... Everyone seems to love it so much, but I honestly don't feel like it does anything for me, except that I like that tingly feeling of the mint on my face while it's on. Besides that, I don't notice any difference after using it. The first time I bought it from Sally's in the tub packaging. When I opened it, the contents were all separated and water spilt everywhere. So I thought maybe I got a bad or old one. A few months later, I bought a new one in the tube. It feels more tingly and minty fresh than the tub I first got, but still didn't improve my skin at all. While it hasn't done any good for my skin, it hasn't done any bad either. I'm just disappointed because this product is so hyped up.
I've been using this mask for years now after hearing the rave reviews and I always find myself reaching for it when I have extra stubborn spots that come up once in a while. I apply a liberal amount to any problem spots and I can definitely see a difference afterwards. You can also visibly see the mask soaking up the extra sebum in your skin as the mask dries!
I got this mask because everyone seems to rave about ti for awhile, so I figured I would try it.
I gave it a few runs, and while it did seems to make my skin more smooth and my pores a bit smaller, there wasn't much else to it. I did not see a crazy difference before and after.
I don't have an acne problem, so maybe it is better for people with acne, but I do get the odd blemish and it didn't do much for that. Also it really dries out the skin, due to the clay, so if you have dry skin like me, it will make it drier for a bit. I had to apply extra lotion after I used it.
The price is pretty good, so I would give it a try, since you are not losing that much if it does not work.
Again, it is not a bad product, but it wasn't amazing for me.

Ryan wants to be Jets coach for 'next 15 years'
Friday - 12/28/2012, 4:24pm EST
By DENNIS WASZAK Jr.
AP Sports Writer
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) - Rex Ryan has no plans to go anywhere.
Doesn't want to, he said.
The feisty New York Jets coach opened his news conference Friday by denouncing a published report that said he would welcome being fired if owner Woody Johnson doesn't make significant personnel and coaching changes to the offense.
"There was a report that was untrue," Ryan said. "The fact is, and it's simple: This is the only team that I want to coach. Period. This is my team. These are my players. I don't want to coach somebody else's players. This is the team I want to coach."
With the Jets (6-9) out of the playoffs for the second straight season, Ryan's job status has become somewhat tenuous in his fourth year. But Ryan said he was "mad as a hornet" when he read the Daily News story, and immediately called Johnson to deny it.
The paper, which quoted unidentified sources, said it stood by the report. The back page carried a picture of Ryan and a headline that said: "Rex Wants Out ... Unless Woody spends on Jets' woeful offense."
"It's a very solid report," said Teri Thompson, managing editor for sports at the Daily News.
Ryan said he was contacted by the reporter Thursday night, but his response wasn't included. Thompson said it was an off-the-record comment and as such was not published.
"There's no bigger Jet than me," Ryan insisted. "I want to be the Jets' head coach for the next 15 years."
Several Jets players said Ryan talked about the story with them in the team meeting earlier in the day, but declined to elaborate on what was said.
The Jets are preparing to finish their season at Buffalo on Sunday. In limbo are the futures of Ryan, general manager Mike Tannenbaum, offensive coordinator Tony Sparano and quarterbacks Tim Tebow and Mark Sanchez.
"Let's face it, I wear Jets stuff every single day," Ryan said. "I'm proud to be a Jet. Sometimes I'm proud to be a Jet more than others. I mean, this season has been a rough one. But this is my team that's how I approach it. I believe that we can accomplish what I set out to do when I took the job. And that's the truth."

I heard that China owns Hollywood aka tells them what they can and cannot release,which is why this brutally violent action/adventure celluloid was censored politically.This is a shame,but then and again,the majority of USA citizens don't care about how their being extremely brainwashed 24/7,365 politically.
Great Movie, cant wait until the second movie, "London Has Fallen"
It was fun to watch, and I am going to pretend it couldn't happen even though it could. I enjoyed the action and watching things blow up.
.....nothing good or bad to say.....
I wasted 2 hrs of my life so you wouldn't have to. Give it a pass.
Average movie. More like video game theme. Gerard Butler is a good actor, but somehow he dissapointed in this movie. Could be good for one time view.
The action scenes in this movie are quite good, as are the special effects, but the story is highly predictable and improbable. Very average.
Similar to the TV series Nikita, this movie is like an update on 21st century urban life. It's slightly romanticized realism keeps it both serious and entertaining. A good thriller plot makes the suspense element very skilfully orchestrated. The subject and location required accuracy and effort in so many fields must have resulted in an enormous amount of expertise; accordingly, the credits seem endlessly long.
Never trust the British. Ponder this. I'm hip to them. After all, they did excel at exploitation (capitalism) and have had plenty of time to consider their decline. They're smarter than the US and finally catching on to digital tech, along with their minions in EU. They are all over the movie industry. -— A top-drawer script done pretty well, for what it is: Die Hard, working-man's, I mean, Tea-Party, sensibility where ONE MAN knows. Our government can't be trusted. "I was right all along, I just need a chance to show it." "I'm sooo mad I could..." -— Topical gooks employed. American flag desecrated. All in charge stupid (except, inexplicably, a Black man, Morgan Freeman—don't know what that's all about!). AND A BRIT, THE INDOMINABLE HERO, redeeming himself (for loss of empire?). -— Make no mistake about it; the British are came!
Standard blockbuster. Usual storyline. I guess movies in the action thriller genre must keep constantly moving. There's really no time for character development or drama. It's a rare action film that has a jolting twist that shocks an audience.

G-Rough, a member of Design Hotels and now by association, a Starwood property, is the sister hotel to the glam-packed PalazzinaG in Venice and the second hotel from partners Gabriele Salini and Emanuele Garosci. PalazzinaG was the Italian debut for Philippe Starck back in 2009. Had to throw that in.

Hilton Wants to Own the Airport Hotel Game in Europe
Europe's busiest airports had a good year last year: citizenM arrived at Paris Roissy – Charles de Gaulle, the first European Element came to Frankfurt, and of course, the shirtless men of Moxy welcomed us at Milan Malpensa. With the last two of those openings courtesy of industry giants Starwood and Marriott, it seems appropriate that the latest news comes from Hilton Hotels, which is reflagging the former Kempinski hotel at Munich airport as the Hilton Munich Airport this month.
With that step, the almost proverbial "airport Hilton" is now available at each of the seven largest European airports (that's London Heathrow, Frankfurt, Paris CDG, Munich, Amsterdam, Madrid, and Rome). There is more to the change in Munich than a different badge on the front door though, and construction in Amsterdam to replace its dated 1970s hotel is moving along too.

How to Enjoy Rome's Hotel de Russie Without Paying $800 for a Room
Sure, enjoying a luxury hotel is easy if you've got the $$$ to burn that it takes to stay the night. But let's face it, that's not always the case, so we love to find ways to sample a hotel for a fraction of the cost of checking in. Who said you needed to be an overnight guest anyway?
We found the perfect alternative at Hotel de Russie in Rome, where rooms will easily go for $800 a night and up, and if you're lucky, you'll spot a Hollywood star or two (Pitt, Clooney, they've all stayed here). Just off of Piazza del Popolo, on designer store-lined Via del Babuino, the de Russie hides a beautiful – and particularly tranquil – courtyard and garden behind its façade, where you can take a quiet break from the hours of strolling through the Eternal (and sometimes frenetic) City.
Yes, the food prices on the menu of Stravinsky Bar will make you look twice (hello €35/$43 sandwich!), and even a latte set us back €8 ($10), but that did come with free WiFi, for two hours, which worked across three devices. We caught up on email sitting close to a terrace heater (it was out of season) and listening to the jazz music coming from the bar.

From Caravaggio to Cinquecento: Inside Hotel Indigo St. George Rome
It's Guess The Hotel revealed! There were several ways in which we thought we'd follow up on our Guess The Hotel from earlier this week. Never in a million years did we think it would be with the knowledge that this, Hotel Indigo St. George in Rome, will now be part of the same family as Kimpton Hotels. While we continue to process that, we'll take you on a quick tour of one of the latest additions to one of IHG's quirkier brands, in a setting that couldn't be further from the Asian cities where we've come to love some of its design.
The 64 rooms all have their murals, but what you'll get depends on the category you choose: for the Cinquecento, pick the Executive King/Twin, which has a bit more space than entry-level Standard rooms. Caravaggio and the angel inspired by "Amor Vincit Omnia" (Love Conquers All), from our Guess the Hotel, appears in the Executive Suites, which give you a living area with pull-out sofa.

Hostel or Hotel? Meininger is Bringing Both to Italy
Next stop: Italy
While the rest of the world is courting millennials, Italy, apparently, is going after the budget market. According to a new report, budget accommodation is predicted to be the fastest growing sector globally for 2014-2018; and Italy – land of ridiculously lavish palace hotels – is playing catch up.
Swift on the heels of the Moxy launch in Milan, the Meininger group from Germany is planning an Italian invasion: from next year, they'll be opening in Milan, Venice, Florence and Rome.
You may not have heard of Meininger before, but they bill themselves as a hotel-hostel fusion, have been in operation for 15 years, and currently have 16 hotels in 10 European cities: mostly in Germany and Austria, plus one each in Brussels, London and Amsterdam.

Generator Hostels Will Open In Paris And Rome Next Year
Call us snobs, but London goes better with Paris and Rome than with Hamburg and Copenhagen. We're not the only ones who think so, either – Generator Hostels are opening properties in the City of Light/Eternal City next year.
Generator Paris (above) will be the largest Generator to date, with 950 beds in the 10th arrondissement (AKA the Canal St Martin nabe). It'll be designed by Toronto-based Anwar Mekhayech, who's also worked for Soho House and Momofuku, and will include a café-lounge and an intimate bar". Prices will start from €25 for a dorm and €98 for a private ensuite room (for two people). Pretty decent, for Paris.

Checking In On Europe's Newest Hotel Indigos, Three Months In
It's been a few months now since the latest Hotel Indigos opened in Europe – Rome in March, St Petersburg a little earlier. How are they doing?
Reviews look solid, particularly for St Petersburg Tchaikovskogo: free soft drinks in the mini bar, a "master of Thai massage" and excellent customer service (by no means a given in Russia) are what people are focusing on.
A room tonight will set you back 6800RUB ($199), though they drop in July to 4900RUB ($143). That's up on the 4000RUB lead-in price on opening, though still great value for Russia.

Inside Hotel Indigo's Two Newest Hotels in Rome and St. Petersburg
Oh happy day! Spring is (almost) in the air -- summer's waiting in the wings -- and Hotel Indigo is popping up all over Europe, just in time for peak travel season.
With two new openings this month, in Rome and St. Petersburg, one next month in Madrid, and at least three others "coming soon" (Lisbon and two more in the UK), we've got a lot of ground to cover. So let's get started with Hotel Indigo Rome - St. George and Hotel Indigo St. Petersburg - Tchaikovskogo ). We'll follow up on the others as they progress.

Funky Friday: Color Replaces Caffeine at the Hotel Art in Rome
Welcome to Funky Friday, a new segment we're trying out which features one photo that we think singularly expresses a hotel's inner psyche. We look for – and find a lot of – wacky, wild and wondrous designs that seem to have one thing in common: a Type A personality. So why not have a bit of fun as we all wrap up our week by taking a quick look at some hotels that quite frankly, want our attention.
Hotel Art has an ancient setting in Rome by the Spanish Steps, occupying a former boarding school, but the experience inside its walls has no historic precedent.
It is a visual journey through one vibrant space after another—all the way to the guest rooms. The interiors are designed to stand out – in white or in combination with one of more dominant colors: blue, green, yellow, and orange.
In the case of the hotel's main lobby, the Hall and the focus of this week's Funky Friday, the pixels are unlimited and the brightness button has been turned all the way to the right.
The Hall is the original old chapel, a rich historic space that any hotelier would be thrilled to transform. This is one very memorable way to do it. The chapel's amazing vaulted ceilings are given new life by painting them deep cobalt blue, accented with tiny golden stars. Walls and columns are white, further amplified by the use of upward lighting at the base of the columns.
The chapel's historic alter sits behind ice blue glass walls that bring a soft glow to the reception area. The rather noticeable spaceship shaped reception desks are -- so we are told -- abstract eggs that symbolize eternal perfection. Who knew?

Meet the Bag Buggies of Hotel de Russie's FENDI Christmas Tree
The world is officially in "Countdown to Christmas" mode and now, so are we. Every day until Christmas we'll be featuring a hotel that's in a holiday mood--whether it be with gigantic gingerbread houses, over-the-top Christmas decorations, thrilling lighting displays and best of all, Santa appearances. But of course, any hotel can assemble a fake tree, put on some lights and declare themselves "festive." Which is why we're looking at hotels that are really going ALL OUT. Know of a hotel that's super excited for Christmas? Let us know!
Not to be outdone by the Lulu Guinness tree in London, the Hotel de Russie in Rome has its very own designer Christmas tree to show off. In a match made in fashion heaven, the hotel has enlisted utterly Roman brand FENDI to create chic Christmas decorations throughout the hotel and garden.
Inspired by FENDI's latest kooky, and some might say creepy, 'Bag Bug' handbag accessory line, the brand has also decorated the hotel's impressive 16-foot Christmas tree on the Piazzetta Valadier with plexiglass versions of the fuzzy critters.

9 Of Our Favorite Killer Hotel Views
Two weeks ago, we ran a story on some of the details about a hotel room that bother the average luxury traveler. Have you ever flung open the drapes in a gorgeous room, only to see a brick wall a few feet away? Yeah, we should've added that to the list. Few things can be so disappointing. In complete contrast, when you score one of those oh-so-sweet views to die for, it can be the difference between an okay hotel stay and the memory of that room with the great view. So, in case you were out to make your next great memory, allow this list of killer hotel views to inspire you:
We begin with Capella Lodge (pictured above), located on the itty-bitty (11 kilometers in length) Lord Howe Island in the Tasman Sea. The landmass is located in the midst the world's most southern coral reef, an area declared an UNESCO heritage site in the early '80s. Seriously, who wouldn't want to wake up like this?

Generators Hostels to Generate Excitement in Paris and Rome in 2014
We've already recommended the Generators Hostel as a budget alternative when visiting Barcelona as it offers stylish and playful digs along with the option of private rooms as well as shared rooms which start at just 17 Euros a night.
Now there's two more design-forward Generators coming to Paris (late 2014) and Rome (Spring 2014.)
The Generator Paris, located in the 10th Arrondissement and Canal St-Martin neighborhood, will actually be the brand's largest property to date, accommodating up to 950 guests in a variety of rooms from dorms to private rooms and even luxury penthouse apartments, all of which will have in-room bathrooms. Tres Bien! The hotel will also include a café lounge serving French cuisine as well as a nightclub and bar. Since Generators are knownw for their live music shows and DJ showcases, we expect this to be where it will all go off at night.
The Generator Rome, located in a stately residential building on Via Principe Amedeo, will be within walking distance to Colosseum, Termini Station and Metro station. It will be much smaller than Generator Paris with just 80 rooms on seven floors, accommodating up to 264 guests. However, it will have a large, rooftop terrace open to all guests with killer views of the city, along with a cafe and a bar and lounge.
No word yet on pricing for Paris and Rome but you can expect it to be crazy sexy cool...affordable.

I have been reading books this summer on photography, and it's interesting to note how the pics in these books are different from the great pics on Flickr, i.e. high quality snaphots by enthusiastic amatuers. The picture above, of a sunset at Lake of the Woods in Mahomet, Illinois taken with the Vivitar Ultra Slim & Wide and cross-processed 35mm film, is an example of what you would likely NOT see in a photo art book (although you might see in a coffee table book).
Pictures considered "great" in published books...
1. Are older than pics on Flickr. No surprise, it takes time to establish greatness; even to be found and put into print!
2. Are almost all black & white as compared to Flickr's mostly color pics. No surprise here, see #1... but it does make one want to explore what you can do in the more pure medium of b&w.
3. Are more people oriented than Flickr pictures. Most great pics have humans in them, and many have a LOT of humans in them. Yes, Flickr has a lot of people shots, but the percentage is smaller, and you rarely see Flickr shots with hoardes of people. Many "famous" streets shots are candids, which are somewhat shunned in some circles of Flickr.
4. Are more likely to capture the moment. It's what makes great pictures great, and it's probably present in only a percent or two of Flickr pictures. Most good Flickr pics are beautiful, but they're not capturing the essential human moment.
5. Have one (and only one) person acknowledge the camera. Many of the great group pics in books have a single person looking at the camera, while the rest of the group is involved in the scene. Look for it.
6. More likely to show naked woman, and less likely to be humorous. While Flickr has its share of skin, it's minute in comparison to how many naked women are in these art books. Conversely, where the hell is the humor? The art world seems to have shunned the humor present in everyday snapshots.
jacoreflex, Hülya Coskun, IrishPics, and 96 other people added this photo to their favorites.
Gorgeous capture, love the colors
Wel it's great to me! Interesting observations though!
good contrast and colors
very interesting indeed, specially agree with the one of a person acknowledging the camera. I have just voted on hundreds of photos on the National Geographic Photo Contest and gave a low mark to any that did not. Similarly the B and Ws in the contest seem to have scored well. Capturing the moment is essential for a great photo.
Hey, I missed this one back in August. Great observations - I'd love to see your photos in a book! I must admit that I'm not keen on taking photos of humans (prefer impressionistic people) and almost never fave a photo on flickr that is people-oriented. Guess I'm where I belong.
After reading your blurb I can only conclude you must be viewing a lot of different groups and photos than I am...I disagree with most of what you said... weird
Im jesS_o014 omg i like it sø0 much its so nice
Very nice sunset photo. www.familynaturephotos.com/
amazing work !
check out my photostream ! :]
40 years taking pics and I have learned that if you see it in print, it is 'old" and no longer fresh. Instant media sharing is a wonderful way to establish the cutting edge - and the edge is Sharp, or fuzzy, or anything in between.
It isn't only the technology that is fresh, it is a viewpoint that keeps looking further, deeper, and with a comprehension of the aspects that can and will emote.
The Great and gifted Photogs have a sight, they see what the Photo will be before it is.
It is "vision' and it is competence, confidence, and the audacity to say that "this is my message" with every shot.
The Spectrum Award
Breathtaking!!!! :]
I have noticed this phenomenon too and I think 3 and 4 are important - black and white is because of the heritage of photography. Also though because people (including me) like to photograph people in black and white ... so if 3 & 4 are important then 2 is a logical consquence. I like to photograph people in black and white (some of the time) because then you concentrate on the humaness and not all the "frou frou" or fluffiness around.
IMO the reason then that people are important is not just for their own sake and not just for that particular moment (both of these points ARE important) but because they represent an historial record of a time. "What were people like back then?" "What was life like back then?" This came to me one day when at the bottom of my Flickr home page one of the Creative Commons photos from Brooklyn Museum appeared and it was a photo of the Eiffel Tower in 1901 with people milling around beneath it. I now live around 20 minutes away from the Eiffel Tower and although the structure hasn't really changed much in 100 years, the people milling about beneath it certainly have :)
Just my 2 (euro) cents!
I like your mini essays and your observations. The photos are great too!
Yes. I have noticed it myself that my street shots, which I love personally, are less popular on Flickr.
I have posted some on Flickr, but not so many.
While I have noticed the lack of interest in natural shots of people I have not really worked out why many shun giving them awards. Compared to other photographs they seem a lot less well liked.
I have noticed that a lot of people on Flickr who might take the odd street shot are shy to get up close and personal. It's too confronting perhaps.
And a few years ago I saw a great humourous photographic calender in a doctors surgery related to hemmeroid's.
It had 12 black and white candid pictures of people bending over in public in various postures, including one person whose head was buried in a hedge they were clipping.
Great wOrk
Cool and interesting profile infomation you haven Kevin. Thank's for sharing
Nice pic! Interesting info!
Nice commentary.
Nice photo!

No easing on the throttle
Tonight's tilt will see intensity continuing, Jets promise
Since Friday was not the endgame and they're still outside the playoff line in the NHL's Eastern Conference, the Winnipeg Jets can ill afford to be looking at their next game or opponent lightly.
And the Jets seem to know it.
After engaging in their daily workout at the MTS Iceplex on Saturday, the talk was all about making tonight's game at the MTS Centre against the Carolina Hurricanes every bit as intense and important as Friday's high-drama 3-2 win over the eighth-place Washington Capitals.
Head coach Claude Noel, for instance, said he will have no time for anything less than the team's best, much of which was on display in the Friday victory that brought the Jets to 76 points and within two of the conference's last playoff position.
The Canes won Saturday to get to 71 points.
Noel said he knows the fans won't take any version of a night off. "They (the fans) are charged up all the time," Noel said. "It's hard to believe they'll be much more charged up tomorrow than they were for that Washington game. I think it'll be the same type of atmosphere. I don't know if it'll be that level of Washington, but would it help? It would help because I think they'd be deeply disappointed if we don't start very well. And I'll be right there with them, pounding on our guys."
Is the coach expecting a letdown? "I'm not expecting one," he said.
And to help avoid one? "You bring it up," he said. "You mention it to them and then you keep them on a short leash.
"If they don't start the game the way you want, you don't play. Right off the bat, the start. You don't wait. You can't sit and wait. Let's go, you've got a game. If you're not ready to play, I'll go with nine forwards, or six forwards if you want. Or four Ds. I'm not going to ease into it."
Noel, however, sounded more confident than threatening, likely because he's starting to get a pretty good feel for his players.
"In my mind, you handle it the exact same way," Jets left-winger Tanner Glass said about going from Washington to Carolina as opponents. "I didn't change anything for the Washington game and my preparation stays the same for Carolina.
"Obviously there's a danger of having a letdown game, but we've talked about that. All you can do is make sure everybody's conscious of it and be prepared for Carolina."
Jets defenceman Mark Stuart said Saturday he's got little or no time for the hypotheticals of what could go wrong.
"We need these points, desperately," Stuart said, asked about potential letdowns. "We keep saying this is our playoffs. I don't see that. (Friday) was a team we needed (to gain) points on, a team we're trying to catch. At the end of the day, there are two points and it'll be the same tomorrow night. It's just as big."
The Jets, 23-10-4 on their own ice, take their show on the road next week to Pittsburgh, Washington and Nashville. That rematch against the Capitals next week in D.C. looms as large as the Friday-night game just played.
"There's huge risk in (looking at it), but I don't look at it at all," Glass said. "I only answer these questions because you ask me. For me, the next game is Carolina. That's all I'm focused on. I couldn't have told you who we played after that. Even last night, I was asking the trainers, 'Who's next?' "
Added Stuart: "You can't look back from the end of the season and say I wish I would have concentrated on that Carolina game a little more, stop looking toward Washington. As cliché as it is, it really is one game at a time, because that is how it is in the playoffs."

Lack of offense sinks Angels in 7-2 loss to Perham

How hardy is the Ice Cream Banana?
How hardy is the Ice Cream Banana?
I've only grown this banana for 2 years but the pseudostem survived a low this winter of 24 in a semi protected spot. It was the second to show growth right behind California Gold. I expect it to bloom sometime later in the summer.
I am certain Ice Cream will at least be root hardy for you in zone 8b. The question will be whether or not the pseudostem will live or die in your zone. An effective way to protect a pseudostem is to wrap it in a blanket all the way to the top of the pseudostem when temps are predicted to drop below freezing. Stokes Tropicals lists it as root hardy to zone 8 and I know Mr. Stokes has told me he has fruited Ice Cream at his house which is outside of New Iberia and probably borderline zone8b/9a. Where in Texas are you located?
I live in Cedar Park just North of Austin, Texas. Yes, perhaps I'll have to wrap the pseudostem. Since I initially posted this I did a little research and it seems it is hardy to zone8. However, that dosen't take into account the pseudostem I'm sure. Wish me luck.
We're in Sacramento; zone 9.
I'm down low, just above "flood stage" of the river & have been wrapping or tenting my Ice Cream bananas over winter. Blossoms & fruit don't winter over well but my friend's plants (at about 300' higher elevation) winter over just fine, including fruit that goes into hibernation over winter.
This info probably doesn't help the original poster any but may be handy for folks using the "search" function in the future.
I have several ice creams that have been in the ground for 3 years now. At first frost, I whack them to the ground and cover them with 2' of mulch. Each spring they pop back up. I'd say they grow to 12-18' each season. A few of them have flowered in late summer, but unfoprtunately the fruit never gets to the ripe stage before the first frost. I am in metro Atlanta...
It holds up really well in the greenhouse too. Mine looked just as good as when we put it in. Until this big thunderstorm this morning, since we put it outside last night.
NOTE:tall bananas put outside for the first time attract thunderstorms....lol...
I'm Zone 8a in the Florida panhandle, and Ice Cream is my most reliable grower/fruiter. I also have CalGold, and wish I hadn't made space for this variety. While CalGold is easily winter-hardy, it tends to bloom later in the season and, quite honestly, I'm not into plaintains. Didn't know that was what CalGold produced when I bought it. (Grrr.)
In order for me to be guaranteed fruit, my banana plants have to bloom by July 1st. Ice Cream is the earliest bloomer of all my varieties, and the yield per bunch is excellent. Taste is everything a home hobbyist could want and more...
Trunks almost always survive the winter, although this winter had more lower temps and was wetter, and I only had the 4-6 footers survive, with only one 10-footer. (Our low this winter was 24F, but two years ago was 20F and I had better survival.) This will probably be a lean year for nanners. :(
-Bruce C.
Bruce, Thanks for the information. I didn't know it was an early bloomer which is great for zone 8.
I didn't realize CalGold was a plantain either. I don't have any of this one, but it's good to know.
You must have quite a mat of bananas there in Florida. Good luck next year.
I just sliced off a five-foot pup from my Ice Cream mat this afternoon, to pot it up and get it rooted for a friend that wanted one. Holy cow did it take a lot of hacking and pounding with the shovel!
Yeah, definitely don't buy into the hype about the CalGold -- especially if you have a shorter season. In my experience, it tends to bloom August-September, which just isn't enough time to ripen before frost in late November/early December. I did get one that fruited earlier last year, and it was such a massive bunch that I had to prop it to keep it from pulling the trunk over. But, like I mentioned, plaintains...
My dwarf Namwah likes the cooler weather, but it too tends to be a fall bloomer. Typical tasty smaller fruits.
My dwarf Brazilian is the only other variety that tends to fruit earlier like the Ice Cream, but the bunches are smaller so you don't get the same "bang for the buck". Better off making room for the larger Ice Creams.
You can get lucky with just about any cool-hardy variety, and have a trunk get "almost there" in the fall, so when it starts back up again in the spring out pops the inflorescence. But in my experience, most of these varieties tend not to stray too far from seasonal patterns.
LOL!!! I know once there established they can be monsters.
Good to know about the Namwah. I have one on the way. I think there the small fruited varities you can find in Asian markets.
Thanks, Bruce, for all the information. It's really helpful.
"I am from the suburbs of Los Angeles. I have grown Ice Cream Bananas with no problem and in abundance. I'm in zone 9 ..."
I'd have thought that L.A. was a tad warmer than zone 9, but I guess it depends on elevation.
We're supposedly zone 9 here in Sacramento & we can't grow jacaranda up here but I know that they grow OK around Los Angeles.
If you can get away with planting your bananas next to the south face of your house it would be a BIG help.
Bananas work a lot spiffier than pulling the blinds, too.
It got to around 100° here today (it's after midnight & still over 90°) & the Ice Creams must have grown at least 6" today. About time, too!
They ahve been an every other year fruiter for me, here 10 miles east of Savannah..but delicious. I can't find any rhyme or reason for psudostem survival. I have seen 10 foot trunks survive 23 degrees, and 6 foor trunks killed to the ground at 26. Go figure. Stay away from Raja Puri....6 years and only one ripened hand. My most reliable is mysore, for year in year out. small, sweet, excellent baananas that always flower prior to the endo if July...and have only needed @ 1 week per hand of fruit for ripening...anywhere from 6 hands all the way up to 14.
I've never tried or tasted ice cream bananas. How big does the fruit get? Does anyone know any stores that I could try one? (Rancho Cucamonga, CA)
I planted a tree last year around April. It keeps putting up leaves but no flowers. It seemed to survive the winter without any damage. Any ideas when I should expect a flower? Anything I should be doing to help it?
I purchased three pencil sized ice cream blue java's from Jon in the DFW area last year. The cost was 20 bucks for three and included shiping. These were my first inroduction to the wonderfuf and crazy world of musas.
Those original banana plants were 6 inches in length and about 1/4 inch in diameter. Now, they are 4-5 feet tall. I trimmed the leaves back and over wintered the psuedostem in my spare bath shower stall. I kept the temp 50-55, room darkened and watered only very sparingly. When cold weather danger past, I moved them back outside and they woke right up.
I also have a dwarf cavendish from last year that recently I parted from 2 pups, a dwarf brazilian, a CA gold, 1 bazoo that came back from the ground (one didn't).
I may have left one or two out; I will have to go look. Old guy here, alzheimers, mad cow, aneurism, CRS and other afflictions besides musas... I also run in and seem to be in near constant training for marathons. Will run for bananas (good t-shirt idea!).
Pax, amor et Musas! Mick -- Abilene (zone 7b), Texas
My micro climate is zone nine winters and zone 10 summers, and 2 years ago we had 6 days in a row of 28 degrees, the Ice cream bananas were unprotected and other than for a few leaf ends, was no damage.
donnafreeman. they should do well in Cuchamunga. Mine tend to be about half the size of store bananas, much sweeter, and have nore of an acid aftertaste. Skin is thin and flesh is firm, As it gets 'over ripe', it stays firm and probably sweeter. I had some concern that the melting flesh meant that is was soft like an over ripe grand nain, but not the case
I think it has less fiber than the commercial varieties so has a different texture. Mine has a lot of pups, and to start I didn't keep them removed. Fruit size and production was affected . so as difficult as it is to remove good plants, next year leave just replacement pups.

What Happens If Affordable Care Act Is Cut By Court?

What happens to the provisions of the federal health care law if the Supreme Court throws it out entirely? Melissa Block discusses that with NPR health policy correspondent Julie Rovner.


text:
In 1939 my Parents,Joe and Bessie Gould of Palmers Green London adopted a Kindertransport brother and sister, Lucy and Salo Bahoratchana? (I'm not sure how to spell their surname) from Prague. They were then I think, aged about 14-15 or 16 years old. I was eight years old and my sister was three. We loved them and I've never forgotten them. They lived in our house even when we were evacuated from the Blitz. In 1948, when my family and I emigrated to Australia they preferred to stay behind in The U.K. Later, Lucy became married and my contact with them most unhappily for me was lost. Is there by any chance someone out there who might know where they are and maybe respond to this my comment?
