Today's video is a quick look at the two banana plants you're most like to come across in UK shops, Musa Basjoo & Dwarf Cavenish, how they vary, their different overwintering methods and a few care tips for the best summer growth. They're both amazing tropical foliage plants and are definitely worth a look if you're planting your own tropical garden right now!
