Ample sun (6 to 8 hours of sunlight per day) is necessary in order to encourage the giant banana leaves to reach their full growth potential, as well as well-drained soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen you're ready to plant, select a site that’s large enough to support the mature size of your Basjoo Banana. Dig the hole to the depth and width necessary to accommodate the root system—typically twice as wide as and slightly deeper than the root ball. Before setting your plant, loosen any tangled roots by hand to separate them and encourage rapid growth. Gently fill the hole and tamp the soil working around the plant with your feet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo help retain moisture, apply organic mulch around the base of the tree and water to settle the roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e2.
