History of the hardy banana Musa Basjoo

Musa Basjoo, also known as the Japanese hardy banana, is a robust plant species that originally comes from the subtropical regions of East Asia. Thanks to its frost tolerance and impressive height, this remarkable banana has become a popular choice for gardens in temperate climates. With its large green leaves and its ability to thrive in different soil types, Musa Basjoo is a valued addition to many garden landscapes.

Care outdoors:

  • Light: Needs a sunny to partially shaded spot; direct sun encourages growth.
  • Temperature: Ideally 20–30 °C; sensitive to frost, but can survive temperatures down to -10 °C.
  • Soil: Free-draining, humus-rich soil is ideal; work in compost regularly.
  • Watering: Keep evenly moist; water sufficiently in dry periods to encourage root growth.
  • Feeding: Feed regularly with a balanced fertiliser during the growing season.
  • Special features: In winter, the plant should be kept frost-free or covered during severe frost.

Overwintering tips:

In winter, Musa Basjoo should be protected with fleece or a layer of mulch in extreme temperatures. This hardy banana is an exotic and easy-care plant that adds a tropical flair to warm regions or sheltered gardens.

Gerne wieder!

Sicher verpackt und in einem fabelhaften Zustand. Wir hatten die Musa als Geschenk versendet und freuen uns natürlich, dass das Geburtstagsgeschenk so viel Freude bereitet hat. :0))

In Zukunft werde ich meine Pflanzen ganz sicher wieder hier bestellen 😍

Ich bin wirklich begeistert und habe eine riesige Freude an den Bananenstauden. Sie sind wunderschön, kräftig und in einem hervorragenden Zustand angekommen – für diesen Preis wirklich top. Besonders beeindruckt hat mich auch die sorgfältige Verpackung. Alles war mit viel Sorgfalt eingepackt, im Topf wie auch im Gefäß selbst perfekt mit Papier und Schutzmaterial gesichert. Die Pflanzen kamen einwandfrei und ohne jegliche Schäden bei mir an. Man merkt sofort, dass hier mit Herz gearbeitet wird. Ich kann den Verkäufer von Herzen weiterempfehlen. Vielen herzlichen Dank!
