Thai Black bananas are fast growers that feature deep green leaves with a striking black pseudostem. It does produce fruit, but it's a seedy, ornamental type of banana. For best color results, give the plant plenty of light and allow time for it to mature into its rich hue.
• Average mature height: 7-10 feet
• Light: Full to part sun
• Soil: Good water-holding capacity. Don't allow it to dry out between waterings.
• Zones: 9-11

Shipping was quick and the plant arrived in great condition

This delicate banana plant was $21.99. The ad indicated shipping at 1 to 2 days. The plant was shipped in a small box on the 5th and reached me on the 11th. It spent 7 days in the box. By comparison I recently purchased a Blue Java banana plant at a local nursery for $39.99 - it's 3.5 feet tall and healthy. I noticed that Wellspring sells the same variety for $42.99 in the same juvenile tiny form like the one they sent me. The plant shipped to me has yellowing leaves and a yellow unhealthy looking stem - how could it not after seven days in a box? I hope it survives. I am disappointed in the size and condition of this plant, and the terrible shipping choice made by the seller.
