Maintenance Notes

To maintain Banana Plants, plant in well-draining soil with full sunlight for optimal growth. Water regularly, keeping the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, and ensure proper drainage. Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season with a balanced fertilizer. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and protect roots. In colder climates, protect the plant from frost by bringing it indoors or covering it with mulch for insulation. Watch for pests and ensure good air circulation to promote healthy growth.
