Amazing,
I received this plant in the middle of winter (in mid-Atlantic region), it was packed well and almost immediately started producing new growth. It was about 8″ tall when I got it. It is now almost 5 feet tall. Great plant that grows fast. Watch out for spider mites in the summer – make sure to give the plant a good spray now and then to kill the mites.

|so far growing good,
I purchased two different 3″ banana plants from this company. Both arrived quickly in good condition. They were re planted and have already formed new leaves. Good product would recommend this company for future purchases.

|Beautiful Plant,
I received this plant very quickly and it was packaged very well. This plant turned out to be very hardy and has even lasted through a barren summer in Northern California.
