How I Overwinter Ensete ventricosum 'Maurelii’ - Red Banana Plant Winter Care Tips

Today's video is about winter preparation & overwintering care for Ensete ventricosum 'Maurelii' red Abyssinian banana plants. These are one of my favourite tropical style foliage plants for UK jungle & exotic gardens, amazing impact for summer bedding displays, huge colourful leaves and very fast growing too! I discuss when to bring the tender Ensete plants inside for winter now we're in mid-November, go through a step by step process of how to overwinter them and the winter storage options like dry storing and growing these bananas as houseplants. I mention how the size of the plant affects the best method to use and the best places to keep them over winter along with my secret weapon for drying them out, a dehumidifier...
