Banana Care Guide The super dwarf qualities of this banana plant allow for practical in home or patio enjoyment. Create a tropical atmosphere with the most widely recognized of all tropical foliage plants. As a true Banana plant, flowering and fruit is possible but unlikely under average household conditions. CARE: Good light, water thoroughly before wilting but never allow to sit in water, feed balanced fertilizer quarterly, protect from frost. Banana plants can fruit if a solar greenhouse or sun room that gets hot in the summer is provided. Also, moving the banana outside to the sunnies location can give fruiting results especially if the pot is planted in the ground or the pot is large enough (15-35 gallon size pot) for the plant to set fruit. Once the fruiting stalk has produced it should be cut off, allowing the new growth coming from the soil, to grow into dominance. If more than one sprout is coming the plant can be divided. I've divided the banana plant by pulling it out of the pot and sawing or machining from the top of the soil line to the bottom, and repotting the divisions in separate pots
