Bananas have become very popular in the last few years, mainly for their large architectural leaves and this pair of bananas are no exception. Wonderfully exotic and great for adding architectural impact to gardens, this pair of Banana plants will look especially impressive.
With huge, paddle shaped leaves spreading gloriously from a central trunk, they'll create a unique, tropical jungle look to your garden while you sit back and enjoy the warm summer sun.
Easy to grow, they'll add impact to your garden very quickly with you barely having to lift a finger! Just keep them well watered and well fed.
Musa basjoo is hardy to -6C and the red banana is borderline hardy, so they're best grown in pots and moved indoors over winter - so we've even included a contemporary & stylish pair of pots with a classic ‘art-deco’ design and a subtle metallic finish, perfect for your bananas!
