Red Banana Plant | 75cm
Size: Approximately 75 cm tall (including nursery pot)
Botanical Name: Ensete ventricosum 'Maurelii'
Also known as: Red Abyssinian Banana or Red Banana Plant
Bold, sculptural, and utterly tropical — Ensete maurelii, the Red Banana, is pure botanical drama. With massive paddle-shaped leaves flushed in deep burgundy, bronze, and green, it adds instant impact and a lush, exotic vibe to any space. Though it won’t fruit indoors, its presence alone transforms a room, sunroom, or sheltered patio into a jungle sanctuary. Originally from East Africa, this fast-growing plant craves light and warmth — ideal for plant lovers ready to go big and bold.
Light:
Loves bright, indirect light and can handle some direct sun. The more light, the richer the colour.
Water:
Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy. Water when the top 2–3 cm feels dry. Avoid letting it sit in water.
Humidity & Temperature:
Enjoys warmth and moderate humidity. Ideal range is 20–28°C. Protect from cold — not frost-tolerant.
Pet-friendliness:
Generally considered non-toxic, but large leaves may tempt curious pets — best placed out of reach.
Perfect for:
Focal points, bright corners, and anyone craving a bold, architectural centerpiece.
