Northern Wonder™ Banana (Musa basjoo 'Northern Wonder') brings a dramatic tropical look to gardens far beyond traditional banana-growing regions. This exceptionally cold-hardy selection can survive Zone 5 winters with proper mulching and regrows vigorously each spring. Massive 4–6' paddle-shaped leaves create a striking tropical silhouette, with plants reaching 12–15' tall by midsummer. Its bold size and lush foliage make it an unforgettable landscape statement.
