Ladyfinger Banana (often referred to as Australian Ladyfinger) is one of the most common varieties grwon in New Zealand. It has good cold tolerance and produces sweet, small, plump and thin skinned fruit that are ready when the fruit start to become yellow in colour. Best planted in a sunny position and sheltered from winds requiring fertile soils, regular feeding and plenty of moisture. Remove stems that have produced fruit and allow new suckers to emerge. Can grow to between 3m and 4m in height.
