Poquito Banana is a dwarf tropical plant with a trunk-like false stem and huge paddle shaped foliage that emerges with red spots that fades as they mature. Grows best in full sun and rich, consistently moist well drained soils. Poquito's small size makes it much more manageable as a houseplant than the species and does not fruit. Treat as an annual if outside.
