Description
Information below is only the potential the plant has. You will be receiving a plant between 3 and 8 inches in height shipped in a 3 inch deep pot. The second picture in the ad shows a range of typical sizes that we ship and is not the actual plant you will be receiving - plant you receive will be within the 3 to 8 inch range.
This is the most popular of greenhouse bananas. It became the primary replacement for the Gros Michel Banana which was destroyed by a disease in the 1950's. The name 'Dwarf Cavendish' is in reference to the height of the plant, not the medium sized fruit. It is one of the most commonly planted banana varieties in commercial production and is the group from which other commercial varieties such as Gran Nain are derived.
Make an exotic Chilean treat with your home grown bananas: "Leche con plátano" Just peel, dice and partially freeze your bananas. If needed let your bananas thaw a bit, put them in a blender with some milk and give them a whirl making it as thick or thin as you like. While it's not actually particularly exotic it makes for a delicious taste experience on a hot summer day or any day of the year (and puts those bananas to good use!)
Average mature height: 8 - 10 feet. Soil: Good water holding capacity. Light: Mostly sunny. Zones: 8 - 10.
