Banana trees have special requirements for container gardening. Banana plants love it for their soil to be nutritious yet drain quickly. Soggy soil will rapidly kill your banana plant.

Worm castings act as a natural compost and create a richer soil.

TIP: Whether inside or out, potted bananas need full sun, with six to eight hours of direct sunlight each day. They also need lots of water to keep their large leaves well hydrated. Check the soil in your container frequently, especially in hot summer temperatures and if the plant is indoors where humidity might be low.

Ingredients: Peat moss, perlite, worm castings, sand, pine bark, and lime.
