Temperatures Abyssinian bananaSole pieno
Let's avoid exposing the The Abyssinian banana to temperatures below 15°C. During late Spring we can place them outdoors, possibly sheltered by the wind. Perennial plants mainly have a spring and summer development. During the coldest months of the year the aerial part can completely dry out, to come up the year after.Let's grow the The Abyssinian banana in a luminous place, with direct sunlight.

Care Abyssinian banana
These plants are perennial herbs. Abyssinian banana Is an evergreen; during winter iIt assumes a green colouring; the adult specimens are large in size and reach 5 m high. The Abyssinian banana has an arcuate development.

Feed Abyssinian banana
In the spring let’s fertilize perennials periodically, using a specific fertilizer for flowering plants, to add to the irrigating water, every 20-25 days; or we can spread a slow release fertilizer near the plants every 3-4 months.

Irrigation Abyssinian bananaTenere asciutto
We suggest watering the The Abyssinian banana every 1-2 weeks with 2-3 glasses of water , which means when the soil has been dry for days; if the season should be very hot and arid we can intensify the quantity of irrigations, although we must avoid leaving the substratum soaked with water. These plants display a pretty long period of vegetational rest. During this time it isn't necessary to water the plants.

Adversity Abyssinian banana
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.

Substrate Abyssinian banana
Locate these plants in a soft and deep, very well drained soil.
