Do you know whether about 70 Fahrenheit (20-21 Grad Celsius) are enough during the winter season for good growth of the Dwarf Ladyfinger (as houseplant)?
Musa Rajapuri and Dwarf Cavendish are very good growing during winter here in Germany under these conditions.

Hello Simona,
Yes, the Dwarf Lady Finger, or any banana plant, will do well inside the house for the winter in a 70°F environment. If you are successful with Dwarf Cavendish, you should be able to grow any banana under similar conditions. But you will need to make sure that it gets sufficient light. Daily misting will help very much as well, though a humidifier would be better. Then when you put it out in the spring, it should take off with a good head start.
Good luck to you, and welcome to the organization!
