Banana tree in container

Question

I have a banana tree in a container. How do I get it to produce? My tree is 5 years old and 8 ft. tall, and is growing great, healthy, etc.

Answer 1

Flowering and fruiting are dependent on light. Try giving it more light, or moving it outdoors in the summer. This article talks about general culture for bananas in pots: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/fruits/banana/indoor-banana-plant.htm
