This vigorous hybrid produces bunches of sweet, slightly tangy bananas and can be grown in the ground in warm climates or in large containers where it can be moved indoors during cooler months. Its bold, arching foliage adds a dramatic tropical accent to patios, gardens, and sunrooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGoldfinger bananas are enjoyed fresh when fully ripe and are also used in baking, smoothies, and cooked dishes. The plant grows quickly in warm conditions and forms a sturdy, upright pseudostem with large, paddle-shaped leaves. Regular watering and feeding during the growing season support strong growth and fruit development. In cooler zones, container culture allows the plant to be overwintered indoors in a bright location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSpecies: Musa acuminata x balbisiana\u003cbr\u003e\nVariety: Goldfinger (FHIA-01)\u003cbr\u003e\nType: Tropical fruiting perennial\u003cbr\u003e\nPlant_Habit: Upright, clumping pseudostem with broad arching leaves\u003cbr\u003e\nSun: Full sun to partial shade\u003cbr\u003e\nSoil: Rich, well-draining, moisture-retentive\u003cbr\u003e\nDays_to_Harvest: Varies with climate, typically 9 to 15 months from planting\u003cbr\u003e\nZones: 9 to 11 outdoors; container grown elsewhere\u003cbr\u003e\nGermination: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSowing: Not applicable\u003cbr\u003e\nSpacing: 6 to 8 feet apart in ground; one plant per large container\u003cbr\u003e\nNotes: Provide consistent moisture and warmth; protect from frost\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67664704995464,"sku":"BTR-476","price":140.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/download_775a315e-8142-4c88-8b57-e109383a0e91.png?v=1791897855","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/10-live-plant-goldfinger-banana-tree-fhia-01-musa-hybrid-starter-plug-tropical-fruiting-plant","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
