Hardy Japanese Banana Plant - Up to 4m High!

Why the Musa basjoo?
This robust banana plant combines the best of both worlds: an exotic look and suitable for our climate. With the right winter protection, it will return year after year, becoming increasingly impressive. A practical choice for garden lovers looking for something special without too much worry.
Please note: the stem of the Musa basjoo can withstand cold down to -7C and can even survive at -15C with the right winter protection. The plant can grow up to 400 cm high with leaves of 200 cm long. In warm summers a lotus flower with small bananas can grow. Be careful with frost and protect the plant well in the winter!
Pruning
To keep the Musa basjoo healthy, it is important to know how to prune it. In the winter months, it is necessary to wrap the trunk to prevent frost damage. Follow these steps: remove leaves, cut the trunk to the desired height, wrap with chicken wire and fill with hay, cover with leaves and a fleece or jute. Protected, the plant will continue to grow. Make sure that the Musa basjoo is in the open ground for winter hardiness
Water requirement
When watering the Musa basjoo, it is important to keep the soil moist, especially during the growing season. Water regularly, but make sure that the roots are not constantly in the water to prevent root rot. Test the soil regularly for moisture and adjust the watering based on the needs of the plant. Water less in the winter, but do not let the soil dry out completely.
Power supply
To properly feed and grow the Musa basjoo, it is important to feed it regularly. This can be done by using a balanced plant food, such as a banana fertilizer. It is also important to ensure that the soil is well-drained and moist so that the plant can absorb the nutrients properly. Protecting the plant during the winter months is also essential for healthy growth and survival."
Location
To give your garden a tropical touch, the Musa basjoo is the perfect choice. This hardy banana plant can survive temperatures down to -15C if its roots are in the open ground. Place it in a sunny location for best growth and protect the trunk from frost during the winter months.

On Monday morning I ordered 3 olive trees and the next morning the truck was already at the stop. Great! I also had a question about the right size of a pot for the olive trees and via Whatsapp I quickly got an answer to my question.
— Sven
Good pleasant communication, also using photos, when selecting an olive tree. The transport company handled the tree carefully and delivered it close to the planting hole.
