    Looked yellow

    The banana tree arrived looking more green with few yellow leaves. A few days later the green leave turn to yellow leaves with brown dried leaves. Been watering it and keeping it in direct sunlight.The trunk looks well and strong.

    Gros Michel

    Very happy with the size and quality of the banana plant. It arrived in good condition with only a few broken leaves which is to be expected. It was very well packaged and in good health and is already thriving. I got exactly what I paid for unlike other websites. Thanks for being a top notch business.

      Can I grow this tree in a container?

      Most fruit trees can be grown in a container.  Follow the recommendations below... 

      1. Start small with a tree in a 3 or 7 gallon container 
      2. Every 6-10 months transplant the tree to a higher capacity container 
      3. The ideal container size to grow fruit trees is 10-15 gallons, so you can move it indoors during the winter months, if necessary 
      4. Make sure your container has draining  holes on the bottom of the container, so that any excess water can drain
      How to plant this tree on the ground...

      Follow the simple instructions below to plant your tree on the ground... 

      1. Choose a sunny area for planting with about 15 feet radius of clear space 
      2. Dig a hole on the ground... twice the height of the container, if possible 
      3. Do not mix any potting soil, manure, fertilizer or anything with the soil when you plant
      4. Take the tree out of the container by laying in the side and slipping the container off, if may be necessary to push and tap the bottom of the plastic container 
      5. It is usually necessary to put some of the removed dirt back into the hole
      6. Bury the root ball so the soil level is the same as it was in the container 
      7. Leave a mound around the tree for form a basin, fill with water, washing the soil into any empty pockets around the root ball
      8. Now is the time to fertilize. Be extra careful because trees are very susceptible to burning with excessive fertilizing
      9. Recommended fertilizer: 8-3-9 (or similar), with manganese, iron and zinc. Scatter one level tablespoon per foot of tree height (do not apply fertilizer if the tree is flowering or during cold spells of temperature below 60 degrees)
      10. You can spread mulch around the base of the tree, but leave the trunk area uncovered so the tree can breath. Mulch helps to retain humidity
