Default Re: Banana plant dying

I wouldn't say virus. From the photo the leaves show no sign of a virus.The yellowing could indicate to much water, but the you said you didn't water it for a while, lack of nitrogen or iron and a possibility of lack of magnesium . The one branch looks like a lot of wind damage , from the photo. Got to new growth coming up from the mother root system.That's good news.The original photo looks like something or some one damaged the trunk. I still say you need to keep it well watered and feed.Try the magnesium and the fertilizer.
