Bananas (Musa sp.) in containers
- 💛 At Top Tropicals, we have a few dozen varieties of Bananas (Musa sp.) - ranging from popular commercial and plantain types to spectacular ornamental bananas with colorful, tropical foliage.
- 💛 Banana plants are a favorite in Southern gardens, indoor plant collections, and greenhouses in cooler climates. Fast and easy to grow, they transform any space into a tropical paradise in just one season and can produce fruit for you in as little as 8–18 months after planting.
- 💛 Bananas are a powerhouse of nutrition, packed with potassium for heart health, fiber for digestion, and vitamins B6 and C for immunity. They’re a natural energy booster, great for snacks, smoothies, and even baking. Plus, their tryptophan content can improve your mood, and their low sodium helps regulate blood pressure.
- 💛 With so many delicious and unique varieties, growing different types of bananas lets you enjoy a range of flavors, textures, and uses - whether fresh, blended, or cooked - making them a must-have in any tropical or indoor garden!

Thank You for a Beautiful Spring Plant Market!
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Spring Plant Market on March 1! It was a perfect early spring day - nice, warm, sunny, and just right for planting. We loved seeing so many familiar faces, welcoming new friends, and sharing the joy of nature together.
Our friendly PeopleCats were hard at work, guiding guests through the garden as they picked out the perfect plants to brighten their spaces. The energy was vibrant, and the smiles were endless!
Check out the event photos made by Damien (he's got some great portraits of people and PeopleCats!). If you see yourself or your friends, save or forward to share the memories! We wish you the best of luck with all your new plants, and we can’t wait to see you again at our next event. Happy planting!
Your TopTropicals Team works hard in the field and is always happy to help with your garden needs, plant selection, delivery, and installation: Kristi, Jamie, Onika, Damien, Chiane, Beatriz, Fermin, Mark.
