Florida Variegated Banana (1-Gallon) - Musa × paradisiaca

Each First Wednesday of the month, we drop a new, rarer plant that we've grown out larger than our typical starter plant size. This week, we have 5 1-Gallon-sized Florida Variegated Banana Plants.

Bring a touch of the tropics to your garden with the Florida Variegated Banana, a stunning ornamental banana prized for its bold green-and-cream striped foliage. Each leaf emerges with unique variegation, creating a striking display that instantly becomes a focal point in landscapes, patios, and container gardens. Fast-growing and easy to maintain in warm climates, this rare banana thrives in filtered sunlight and adds a lush, exotic look wherever it is planted. While grown primarily for its spectacular foliage, mature plants can also produce small clusters of fruit under favorable conditions. A favorite among collectors and tropical plant enthusiasts, the Florida Variegated Banana delivers year-round color and undeniable curb appeal.
