Musella lasiocarpa

Compact banana relative from 9000’ grows only 5-6’ tall – Lovely blue green leaves (that refuse to shred in the wind!) are 3-4’ long and held upright over the bulbous base – a sunny warm spot in moist soil with decent drainage is best – great in a pot! In the infrequent event that your Musella grows a huge 14" yellow flower...which is a process that can take the better part of a year, the plant dies, but pups formed around the base will provide many more years of enjoyment AND provide nice gifts for gardening friends! en 5!)
