We don’t have to do much of anything for our banana trees where I live.
One thing some people do is to wrap the plant in the winter to keep it from freezing back.

Some banana plants have flowers that you can eat and there is a red banana that produces seeds that you can plant.

It’s been a while since I have had a banana tree and have thought about getting some, I just can’t figure out where to put them yet.

One thing they say is that they like full sun but I have seen many banana trees down here in partial shade that do fine.

Not a bad plant to have around the place to green things up and I think they would look nice along with my elephant ears.

I think I will put some with them to see how well they do in partial shade.8)
