Dwarf Banana - Musa acuminata 'Dwarf Cavendish'
Nothing transforms a sunny spot quite like a banana plant. The huge, paddle-shaped leaves bring an instant tropical quality that very few other plants can match, and 'Dwarf Cavendish' is compact enough to manage in a large container on a patio or terrace through summer. It's the same variety grown commercially for fruit - though in the UK, it's the foliage rather than the fruit that's the main event.
Native to South and Southeast Asia, banana plants are frost-tender and need bringing indoors before temperatures drop in autumn - to a bright, cool room, conservatory, or greenhouse. In summer, they put on a remarkable amount of growth with good sun and regular feeding. The leaves may tear in the wind - this is completely normal and doesn't affect the plant's health.
Grow in full sun or partial shade in fertile, well-drained soil or compost. Water freely through the growing season, reducing significantly in winter. Feed with a high-nitrogen fertiliser through spring and summer to fuel the leaf growth. Move indoors before the first cold nights of autumn.
Decorative pot not included.
