This distinctive banana tree features large tropical foliage and produces bunches of flavorful bananas that will grow to 5"- 8" long. Once mature, the tree can reach a height of 5'-6' and spread of 7'-8'. With the plant's broad, shiny green leaves, and yellowish green bark, you'll feel like you're in a tropical paradise. With plenty of space, ample sunshine, and rich, well-drained soil, you can enjoy the beauty of a banana tree in your yard during your area’s growing season year-after-year. To grow a banana plant successfully you must provide generous amounts of organic matter, potassium and nitrogen, constant warmth and moisture, consistent humidity, and dark, fertile soil. If you live in a cooler climate, plant these warm-weather plants in containers so that you can move them indoors before freezing temperatures arrive.
