Need advice on my beloved banana tree. It thrived all summer (Minnesota) and grew to a totally unexpected and delightful height. Sadly, it blew over toward the end of the season and suffered some damage. It’s been inside since mid-Sept and is growing increasingly yellow. New leaves before they even unfurl are yellowed in places. We got a big half wine barrel pot for re-potting - should we do it ASAP and try to save him? All advice welcome!
Only repot to a size 2 inches larger IF the plant is root bound and actually needs repotting. Excess water in the soil the plant can’t use up will rotten the roots. The yellowing is possibly lack of sufficient light, water and/or fertilizer. Banana plants thrive in full sun. They can live in very bright indirect light. Most homes can’t provide sufficient light unless the plant is in a south or west window getting 8 hours minimum of light. Try adding a large grow light. 🍀🪴
