Native to the Pacific Islands, Malaysia, and Northern Australia, ‘Banana’ has curiously shaped, bright yellow and green foliage that would cheer up any room. Highly colourful, this houseplant has elegantly elongated leaves which extend and unfurl in an upright fashion.

Home care: Beauty like this needs certain requirements but given the right conditions this striking plant will thrive. Place it on a warm east or west facing windowsill with a constant temperature of no less than 16°C, but not in direct sun. It likes moist air so mist the leaves regularly, or stand it on a tray of damp pebbles so the moisture can evaporate into the atmosphere. Water freely from spring to autumn with tepid water keeping the compost moist, reducing through the winter months. Feed through the growing season with a liquid fertiliser.
