Lovely dwarf (4-5ft) banana which blooms reliably, even indoors
once established; it may even bloom in its first year. The exotic
flowers (inflorescence) are pink to orange and are followed by
bright, velvety, pink bananas. The fruit is edible - but beware,
they are full of hard seeds! Rootstock will survive outside with
some winter protection. Musa Velutina also makes a good houseplant. |
