Grow Delicious Bananas Indoors or Out!
Why Dwarf Cavendish Banana Trees?
Superfruit, right from home. That's what you'll get with the Dwarf Cavendish Banana Tree. Bananas are ultra-healthful, packed with fiber, potassium calcium and iron, plus the good looks for a tropical-inspired tree.
Warmer climates enable vigorous growth when this tree planted in the ground, but because our Cavendish is uniquely dwarf-sized, it also thrives when it's container planted. Plus, it only matures to 8 to 10 feet in height, so you'll be able to transport it from the patio to your kitchen or sunroom with ease.
The Dwarf Cavendish means you'll have a tropical air in any space. The leaves of the Cavendish grow up to 4 feet long, are extremely lush, and provide shade and privacy. Young leaves may tinge with red while the majority of the leaves are a fresh green color for extra visual interest, complemented by sizable flowers that drop prior to the development of your delectable bananas.
Why Fast-Growing-Trees.com is Better
Best of all, your Dwarf Cavendish will be delivered with care. We use special attention when packing and shipping your prized tree, and during the growing season, you'll see fresh new leaves appear every few days. Plus, because we've planted and grown each Dwarf Cavendish for success, you get a proven performer in your homescape. You get healthful roots and developed branching because we've put in the hard work at our nursery, months ahead of time.
