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.

First, I have ordered 4
First, I have ordered 4 separate orders. 3 were amazing, and the last cactus, sadly, died. But I spoke with customer service, sent pics, and got a credit. So I bought this banana tree with that credit. It arrived healthy and in immaculate shape!! I'm so excited to eat a banana! It has already started new growth, and there is a baby tree growing off the side of it!! So products, shipping, Customer service, and resolution teams, and plants/bushes. Have all been awesome!! I will miss the cacti that didn't make it. But the banana tree is amazing!! My peach trees are amazing!!! I am so glad to see that they have stepped up their shipping game. From years ago to today. The packaging has improved leaps and bounds! Thank you Fast Growing Trees, and team!!
Banana tree
I was vary happy with my cavendish banana tree
Banana Tree is doing well
We have had the banana tree for a couple months now and it is starting to really grow taller. It is growing taller and has a new baby sprouting from it, which we will remove in a couple weeks. We are very pleased with this tree.
Healthy plant delivered in careful
Healthy plant delivered in careful protective packaging. It's been about a month since it first arrived and has already finished growing a leaf and is working on a new one. I have "Donkey Kong" planted in a 40 gallon grow bag in an organic soil mix and feed it weekly with Banana Fuel. We live in zone 7B so it currently is on the patio in full sun and will be moved inside to the sunroom for the winter. Hoping for some fruit in the next couple of seasons! The first photo is from we first received the plant and the second one is current.
Quite pleased
They arrived quickly and in good condition. A bit larger than expected. Doin' well so far. Just have to see how shocked they get when they come in this fall. First time ordering from FGT & probly not the last. We'll pleased.
