hi
years ago i've been into bananas but after i while i became interested into medicinal plants, and after some harsh winters i decided to stop growing bananas.
well.. this year i bought some bananas again... ( musa basjoo etc)
im going to move a bigger appartement next week and my question is :
what banana plants are suitable for growing indoors ? example can i grow musa basjoo indoors ? is ensete ventricosum a worthwhile plant to grow indoors ( long term )
Light isn't a problem and i keep most plants alive - i always have huge amounts of plants indoors so it isn't very dry either.
would aphids and spider mites be significant problems ? which species ( indoor and outdoor species ) are less prone to spider mites and aphids ?
im not a newbie, i just don't have much experience growing bananas indoors and i want to know if it's worthwhile before investing lots of money into it.
thanks .
