## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great banana tree to add to our banana tree collection!
*by C***R on May 24, 2024*

Came fast and was a really healthy plant! I love it! Would buy from this seller again!

### ⭐⭐⭐ It's not growing.
*by P***A on September 13, 2021*

First, it came in a 2" pot. Second, it's not growing. The other plant is taking off & producing lots of new leaves but the apple banana is just sitting there, looking sickly. I've tried to contact the seller but am unsuccessful. The leaves died rather quickly after unwrapping it.
