I had the banana before and kept it for 5 yrs. It was 7' tall. I lost it last yr when I did not water it all winter. Life happened and I lost a lot of plants in the Laundry Room.
Look at all those pups I had and I let it die. I was heartbroken but I was caring for a family member and life got away from me.
I keep all my tropicals in their pots in the back of the Laundry Room and give them a cup of water once a month everything comes out ready to grow and in tip top shape.
