Thompson and Morgan Ensete Ventricosum Maurelii Plant Pot 4.5L

Ensete ‘Ethiopian Black Banana’ instantly transforms patios and gardens with its towering leafy trunk and striking burnished red foliage, creating a dramatic tropical focal point. Its enormous sail-like leaves feature bold red midribs that catch the light, adding vibrant texture and colour to any outdoor space. Thriving in warmth, this tender banana is perfect for container growing, allowing you to move it indoors when temperatures drop below 5°C for year-round interest. For best results, position in full sun with shelter from strong winds, water regularly during the growing season, reduce watering when dormant, and feed weekly throughout spring and summer. Maintain moderate humidity and good airflow to prevent disease, and overwinter in a conservatory or greenhouse to keep it frost-free. Images shown are for guidance only and represent expected results at maturity; variations may occur due to growing conditions and seasonality (e.g., deciduous plants may lose leaves in colder months).
