Was looking for videos to grow my 'banana' and clicked on this video by accident. Very informative and engaging, looking to buy my own Banana plant now. Thanks Gbenga!
Exactly the same experience.. Never seen it in a supermarket so grabbed it and it took off straight away indoors.. Thanks also for the Yebba shout out.
I have 7 dwarf canvasish banana plants and 3 of the truly tiny banana plants. I think I've become obsessed lol. Enjoy them, the pup a lot and you'll wind up begging folks to take a pup lol. Happy growing 💜
I liked the part when you mentioned Nigerian cuisine. The plantains leaves are used here in Colombia too on a similar recipe, is our version of tamales
Beautiful plant and also beautiful bug. We better get a repotting video. For some reason my instinct is to worry that it’ll be harder to separate the baby once its root system is more established and potentially tangled up in its mama’s?
(original comment was deleted) I think yes it will be harder to separate the 2 plants if they're left to grow together. But if I need to cut (some of) the roots to separate them it will probably survive

Just bought this plant and your video was definitely the most informative on how to care for it thank you 🙂👍🏽
Glad it was helpful - update video coming soon
I’m also a “budding” plant dad 😉 this is so informative. Thanks Gbenga. Also your style is really soothing

Love this!
Allow five leaves on your plant, trim them off cutting from the underside.
What's the reasoning for only 5 leaves at a time?

And moin moin with fish is... A choice
I live in Canada and I water mine every 7 days
Hope yours is doing well
I want to have this plant, any idea where I can find one here in the UK? I live in Somerset SouthWest England
Hey, I got mine at Tesco actually - but I've also seen them at other supermarkets and a few independent plant nurseries
