Dwarf Cavendish is one of the best suited for interiors. To circumvent any problems, make sure you use a good quality potting mix, such as Miracle Grow Moisture Control. Do not use SOIL, Garden soil and earth tend to cake up when dry, then when you water, it mostly runs right through, and also dirt tends not to allow any oxygen to the roots. Use a professional potting MIX. Place it into an over sized pot as they will grow quickly and tend to produce suckers the first year way before flowering and fruiting. Put it somewhere it will receive as much light as possible. Do NOT over water. Occasionally spray luke warm water on the undersides of the leaves and down into the tops of the petioles between the leaves to curtail any spider mite infestations that could occur.
