Honest review: Banana Plant is rewarding but failure to flower indoors without sufficient light intensity is real

Banana Plant is a genuinely satisfying plant to grow, but I want to be upfront about one thing: failure to flower indoors without sufficient light intensity. I've dealt with it twice now and it takes consistent attention to manage.

Beyond that, dramatic large leaves or flowers that create an instant impact makes it one of my favourites in the collection. I keep it in a bright living room away from draughts which suits it well. Learning about providing high humidity through pebble trays or regular misting has been essential. bringing back indoors before first autumn frost is worth waiting for — the plant really justifies itself then. Four stars because of that persistent issue.
