Kokopo, Patupi Dwarf Banana Plant

I like the plant it came well boxed and has good size.

Have received excellent quality plants from them every time. Shipping is quick and the plants are packaged well. I recommend Everglades Farms to my friends.

I received the Kokopo plant in decent looking condition. It was handled and packaged with great care. However, I believe the plant has some sort of disease where the pattern of pathology is leaf spots and reddening of the petiole near the pseudostem. This appears to eventually lead to necrosis of the petiole and otherwise decent looking leaves falling off. The new growth does look much healthier, but it has been losing leaves faster than they are growing. My guess is that the plant will survive and if it does, I'd move this review to 3/5 stars.

we are in Portland Oregon and worried about long transit in the cold. Two day FedEx was great. Plants in the one gallon (slightly squished) container came through without any damage. One of the leaves was kinked but that was about it.
The root ball had fully filled out the 1 gal can. Some places will up pot them into a larger pot to upcharge you but this place is honest and the the plant is maxed out in the pot that it came in. We've already up potted the banana plants into a 15 gal can.

This thing was nearly dead from heat pack and weighed about three lbs from all the water soaked into its soil/ now customer service says this isn’t covered and I’m just out my $50. What???
