![]() Hello everyone, I am new here! I have been an avid gardener for many years. I recently (1 week ago) purchased a Dwarf banana plant. It was very healthy looking when I purchased it. When I got home I Repotted it and within a couple of days it became very droopy. I have a green house with regulated temps. The plants receive about 6-8 hours a day of sunlight. I assume my banana plant has transplant shock. It has now been 7 days since purchasing and 3 of 6 leaves are drooping very low. Is there anything I can do to keep my banana from dying? Any products that may help with transplant shock? I also have a banana fertilizer but have yet to use that. Do I want to slow down on water? I am very new to owning a banana plant. I really appreciate any advice and info that you can give me!
Thank you for your time ![]() |

![]() Welcome to the Jungle....
![]() The plant will do that if the roots are disturbed. Give it a month to sort itself out using minimal fertilizers. Treat the plant as you would your other tropicals and you should be good ![]() |
