The choice for commercial Banana fruit growers! The yellow 'Chiquita' banana fruits that are widely available in UK supermarkets are produced by this plant. Musa acuminata 'Grand Nain' is a very fast growing species that can produce huge fruit crops in a single season when grown in optimal conditions. This tropical species will need to be grown as a houseplant through winter to protects it from cold weather.
Current Size: Supplied as a plug plant.
An absolutely incredible Banana with red striped foliage on mature plants. Musa sikkimensis ‘Bengal Tiger’ is thought to have similar hardiness to Musa Basjoo, surviving -5ºC with a light wrap of fleece in the Grow Paradise garden. Musa sikkimensis ‘Bengal Tiger’ grows rapidly and can reach a height of 2.5m tall and 1m wide within 2 seasons. A fantastic specimen plant.
Please note: The red leaf markings are variable and will appear as the plants get larger and are exposed to more light. These plants have been cut back and are now pushing out their first leaves of the season. Current Size: Supplied as a jumbo plug plant.
