Musa 'Basjoo' - Japanese Hardy Banana
Musa 'Basjoo'
Musa basjoo grows to the size of a small tree, so gardeners are often shocked when the foliage dies back when the first frosts arrive. This is nothing to worry about, though – think of it as an enormous herbaceous perennial that, in this climate, dies back in winter to the roots and will produce new growth in spring.
When temperatures warm in spring, Musa basjoo will grow quickly to produce large, exotic leaves and will appreciate regular watering and feeding to sustain this growth. It looks brilliant in a sub-tropical border
Can grow to 2-2.5 metres high.
