Care guide

Care Guide – 5 Essential Tips for Musa aeae:
1. Light:
Provide full sun to bright, indirect light. High light levels are essential to maintain the bold white variegation. Avoid low-light conditions, as they will reduce the contrast in the foliage.
2. Watering:
Keep the soil consistently moist but never soggy. Allow the top inch to dry slightly between waterings. Use a well-draining potting mix to prevent root rot.
3. Humidity:
Musa aeae thrives in high humidity (60–80%). Mist regularly or use a humidifier, especially in dry indoor environments.
4. Fertilizing:
Feed every 2–3 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a nitrogen-rich liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding during the cooler months.
5. Temperature & Environment:
Maintain temperatures between 20–30°C (68–86°F). This plant is not frost-tolerant and should be overwintered indoors or in a greenhouse if you live in a cooler climate.
