Red Abyssinian Banana Tree (Ensete maurelii) - 5 Gallon Pot
Though from the high mountains of East Africa, the Red Abyssinian Banana is sure to bring the look and feel of the tropics to any American garden. It is cold hardy when grown outdoors to USDA Zone 9a (-25F), and possibly 8a-b since winters are generally warmer as of late. In containers it might only be hardy outdoors to USDA Zone 9b. That said, in colder climates, container-grown plants can be sheltered indoors during the colder winter months and moved back outdoors when temperatures warm in spring. In our gardens, it reaches about 8 to 10 feet tall and 6 to 8 feet wide at the top, but we hear it will go to 20 feet tall in tropical, frost-free climates. Its long and broad paddle-shaped leaves up to 10 feet long are olive-green flushed with burgundy-red. It thrives in a sunny to partially shaded location, however the red coloration is stronger with more sun. We suggest 5 hours or more of direct sunlight per day. This is one of those outstanding plants that will not go unnoticed in the garden! Get all the details below
