This unique variety grows to about 150 cm high and is ideal for tropical-looking borders, patio pots or as an eye-catcher in a tub. This set of two plants offers instant volume and future flowering pleasure.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"457\" data-end=\"969\"><strong data-start=\"457\" data-end=\"484\">Appearance and growth habit<\/strong><br data-start=\"484\" data-end=\"487\" \/>The plant develops grey-green leaves with distinctive red veins. Unlike larger species such as <em data-start=\"594\" data-end=\"607\">Musa basjoo<\/em> or <em data-start=\"611\" data-end=\"629\">Musa sikkimensis<\/em>, this banana remains compact, making it perfect for smaller gardens or limited space. After 3 to 4 years - depending on growing conditions - a yellow flower over 20 cm in diameter forms from the stem. This inflorescence is spectacular: new petals open every few weeks, allowing flowering to continue for up to 12 months.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"971\" data-end=\"1198\"><strong data-start=\"971\" data-end=\"1001\">Side shoots &amp; life cycle<\/strong><br data-start=\"1001\" data-end=\"1004\" \/>After flowering, the mother plant dies off, but the plant produces more than enough side shoots to ensure continuity. This creates a sturdy clump full of exotic charm over time.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1200\" data-end=\"1484\"><strong data-start=\"1200\" data-end=\"1230\">Care &amp; hibernation<\/strong><br data-start=\"1230\" data-end=\"1233\" \/>From April to November, the plant can be placed outside, preferably in full sun and with a nutritious soil. During these months, regular watering and fertilisation (e.g. organic manure or compost) is crucial for healthy growth and eventual flowering.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1486\" data-end=\"1521\">For winter, there are two options:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1522\" data-end=\"1808\">\n<li data-start=\"1522\" data-end=\"1640\">\n<p data-start=\"1524\" data-end=\"1640\"><strong data-start=\"1524\" data-end=\"1546\">Outdoors:<\/strong> Protect the roots with a thick mulch layer and insulate the trunk with reed mats or climate cloth.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1641\" data-end=\"1808\">\n<p data-start=\"1643\" data-end=\"1808\"><strong data-start=\"1643\" data-end=\"1661\">As a tub plant:<\/strong> overwinter in a light, dry place above +5\u00b0C. This is the safest way to encourage flower formation and preserve the plant year after year.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"1810\" data-end=\"1906\">Note that the plant is moderately hardy to -8\u00b0C and can be sensitive to our wet winter climate.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1908\" data-end=\"2303\"><strong data-start=\"1908\" data-end=\"1928\">Additional information<\/strong><br data-start=\"1928\" data-end=\"1931\" \/>The <em data-start=\"1934\" data-end=\"1954\">Musella lasiocarpa<\/em> is native to the mountains of Yunnan (China), where it is found at altitudes of up to 2,500 metres. It is also called <em data-start=\"2072\" data-end=\"2092\">Ensete lasiocarpum<\/em> and belongs to the same family as the edible banana. Although it does not produce edible fruit, its long-lasting inflorescence and fragrant flower make it one of the most decorative banana plants.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2305\" data-end=\"2324\"><strong data-start=\"2305\" data-end=\"2322\">Specifications<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"2325\" data-end=\"2614\">\n<li data-start=\"2325\" data-end=\"2347\">\n<p data-start=\"2327\" data-end=\"2347\">Set of: 2 plants<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2348\" data-end=\"2382\">\n<p data-start=\"2350\" data-end=\"2382\">Height on delivery: approx. 40 cm<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2383\" data-end=\"2401\">\n<p data-start=\"2385\" data-end=\"2401\">Pot size: 12 cm<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2402\" data-end=\"2428\">\n<p data-start=\"2404\" data-end=\"2428\">End height: approx. 150 cm<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2429\" data-end=\"2457\">\n<p data-start=\"2431\" data-end=\"2457\">Hardiness: up to -8\u00b0C<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2458\" data-end=\"2501\">\n<p data-start=\"2460\" data-end=\"2501\">Flowering: large, yellow flower (5-12 months)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2502\" data-end=\"2541\">\n<p data-start=\"2504\" data-end=\"2541\">Position: full sun, rich soil<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"2542\" data-end=\"2614\">\n<p data-start=\"2544\" data-end=\"2614\">Wintering: cool and dry above +5\u00b0C or well protected in the garden<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2x Musella lasiocarpa<\/p>\n<p>Hardy ornamental banana or Chinese lotus banana<\/p>\n<p>Height max: 150cm<\/p>\n<p>Delivery height incl. pot: approx. 40 cm<\/p>\n<p>Pot size: 13cm<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":56139,"template":"","meta":{"_joinchat":[]},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[262,1011,233,234,2391,867,294],"product_tag":[3234,3240,3235,3233,3229,3236,3231,3237,3165,3239,3230,3238,3232,3228,3241,3242,3220,3221],"class_list":["post-54495","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-bomen-struiken","product_cat-fruit-deals","product_cat-fruitbomen","product_cat-fruitstruiken","product_cat-mediterrane-en-exotische-fruitplanten","product_cat-pakket-deals","product_cat-specials","product_tag-banaan-met-gele-bloem","product_tag-banaan-voor-terras","product_tag-bananenplant-winterhard","product_tag-bloeiende-bananenplant","product_tag-chinese-lotusbananen","product_tag-compacte-sierbanaan","product_tag-dwergbanaan","product_tag-ensete-lasiocarpum","product_tag-exotische-tuinplant","product_tag-geurige-bloem","product_tag-heilige-lotus","product_tag-lotus-banana","product_tag-musella-kopen","product_tag-musella-lasiocarpa","product_tag-musella-lasiocarpa-winterhard","product_tag-set-tropische-planten","product_tag-sierbanaan","product_tag-tropische-kuipplant","pa_ewd_uwcf_colors-groen-2","pa_groeihoogte-300-cm","pa_pot-105-cm-pot","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 -
