Maintenance guide
Easy to grow, but it thrives with regular care! Here’s how to give it the best conditions:
Musa ‘Zebrina’ thrives in bright light and warmth. Outdoors, place it in a sunny, sheltered spot to protect its large, delicate leaves.
Keep soil consistently moist and ensure it remains rich and well-drained. High ambient humidity will enhance its spectacular foliage.
Apply a balanced liquid fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season to sustain vigorous growth and vivid leaf markings.
Not hardy, this banana must be overwintered indoors or protected once temperatures fall below 10 °C (50 °F).
