FREE: BANANA PLANT

how warm does it have to be to grow these? i live in indiana and it can get pretty cold

What condition do you expect the plant to be in when it arrives? Is it bare root?

i just read up about banana plants they sound really cool to grow what sz suckers and how many are you sending it said 4 ft tall suckers are the best to use.... this is what it said {Only take suckers from vigorous banana plants. The suckers should have small, spear shaped leaves and ideally be about four feet high. (Smaller suckers will take longer to fruit and the first buch will be smaller} {The best suckers are the ones with the small, spear shaped leaves, NOT the pretty ones with the big round leaves!}{•Rich, dark, fertile soils.
•Lots of mulch and organic matter. LOTS. Just keep piling it on.
•Lot of nitrogen and potassium. (Chicken manure!)
•Steady warmth, not too hot and not too cold. (Bananas are sissies when it comes to temperatures...)
•Steady moisture, in the ground and in the air.
•The shelter of other bananas! That's the most overlooked aspect by home growers... these sound really cool to grow I live in missouri and i am thinking on bidding on one sounds fun to grow but ill have to plant them in pots thank you very much for listing this hope to hear back from you soon cool plant

one more thing please they say there are 3 varieties one is smaller than the other two do you know which type you have? thank you

I also read about them ... they only live one yr they mature in 9 months then they die and new plants come up... cool as a house plant in colder climates lol
