Ever Red Hardy Banana
Item #: 18940
Zones: 7b to 10b
Dormancy: Winter
Height: 168" tall
Origin: Himalayan Mountains
Musa sikkimensis 'Ever Red' is an exciting new clonal selection of the hardy Sikkim banana, with dramatic, irregularly streaked, red-purple foliage, radiating out from the 14' tall, football lineman-sized trunk. Despite on-line, fake news reports of winter hardiness in Zone 5, it's only possible for it to survive -15 to -20F in the ground, if you build a greenhouse around it.
