Japanese Hardy Banana Tree (Musa basjoo) - 2 Gallon Pot
Native to the Ryuku Islands near Japan, Musa basjoo, which we call the Japanese Hardy Banana, is one of, if not the most cold-hardy banana plants in the world. It can be grown outdoors in the ground year-round, where winter low temperatures can go as low as -10F, which is as far north as New England and Ontario, Canada! We've had one growing by the garden pond in our north-central Georgia gardens since 2010. Every year, after emerging from dormancy, it quickly forms an arching canopy of huge paddle-shaped leaves up to 6 feet long and 2 feet wide atop one or more trunks. It grows 6 to 14 feet tall and equally wide depending on the climate. The further south you go in its hardiness range of USDA Zones 5a-11, the taller it will be. Ours grows to about 10 feet tall every year before going dormant for winter. In Zones 9 and 10 its foliage stays green year round. Creamy yellow flowers might appear in summer followed by green, inedible fruits. The Japanese Hardy Banana provides an exotic and tropical aura to the landscape and will surely be a conversation piece. Get all the details below
