Sunlight: Ensure your banana tree receives ample bright, indirect sunlight. Indoors, place it near a sunny window. For outdoor growth, provide partial to full sun for optimal health and variegation.

Soil: Opt for well-draining, nutrient-rich soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH. A blend of potting soil and compost is excellent for potted plants.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Regular watering is crucial to maintain steady moisture levels and support healthy root development.

Temperature: The Musa Meta-Chimera Banana Tree thrives in warm temperatures, ideally between 75-85°F (24-29°C). Protect it from frost, and consider bringing potted specimens indoors during colder months.

Fertilization: Feed your tree with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer during the growing season (typically spring and summer) to encourage robust growth and, potentially, fruit production.
