Red Banana Plant

The same banana plant from 2007, that I carried into the house to stay alive during the winter. This year, as you can see, the plant was too big to keep in a pot. Actually it probably was too big to bring indoors last year!

I bought two banana plants last fall left them in pots and bad fall so they both died..now I want to plant my own from seed, and need to know if you need special fertitizer or anything else..

Yes banana trees may be planted in an region of the country when all danger of frost is gone. now as to their returning next year that is another question. I live in hort zone 7a and mine die down with the first frost. I then cut them down and mulch well and they return in the late spring.

They do require food. I use a 15-30-15 on mine (the blue stuff). I have never seen banana seed but I believe they are propagated through off shoots. They can be overwintered in a greenhouse or in a very sunny area in the house.

You also might grow them in large tubs and let the first frost take the tops and move them to an area that doesn’t freeze.

Hope this helps.
