Well as Simon & Garfunkle say in the song Mrs. Robinson: We'd like to know a little bit about you for our files
We'd like to help you learn to help yourself. You didn't finish your new membership info so I dont know what zone you live in. Do you have a greenhouse. What type banana? There are a host of other questions pertinet to answering your question? Let me say first and foremost that it isn't a good idea to buy a plant unless you know where you will plant it and how you plan to use it.

Generic info: Plant them as soon as possible. Feed with blue powdered fertilizer at 1/2 strength when planted. Keep damp but not wet. Keep warm and in lots of light.
