The banana tree is one of the fast-growing plants. She gains about an inch per day. The banana plant only needs about a week for the growth of a leaf. It can grow up to ten meters high.
Banana plants grow relatively quickly
How old does a banana plant get?
Banana plants die back at around four to six years of age, but are not always hardy. However, that does not mean that you then have to buy a new perennial. Before the banana tree dies, it trains Kindel. From these you can relatively easily pull a new perennial.
The essentials in brief:
- daily growth approx. 1 cm
- Leaf growth: about one leaf per week
- high water and nutrient requirements
- possible age: approx. 4 to 6 years
- not very disease prone
