As a result of intense agriculture, the natural habitat of Ensete lasiocarpa has become highly fragmented. In fact, truly wild populations are unknown, which is why the species may have to be classified as 'Extinct in the Wild'. The remaining populations are considered to be 'semi-wild' ones. These populations are maintained only through cultivation, thanks to the cultural and economic significance of this species to local people.

With its inflorescence resembling a lotus flower in bud and lasting up to 250 days, the golden lotus banana has become a sacred plant of Buddhist monks in the tropical region of the Yunnan.


These are cold hardy to zone 5. They make great house plants also. They need lots of sun and water. If you live someplace where their is a winter they will die down and then come back in the spring. If it is always warm, well then they just keep growing. They can reach 5 feet tall :)

I highly suggest soaking the seeds for 48 hours then scuffing with sandpaper or a file before planting. NEVER scuff the eye of the seed however. You will know what I mean by eye when you see them. They can take three months to germinate.

I have a grand total of 21 left that are cold strated. So I am only having one maybe two more until the summer when the rest are ready. I will not list them until they are ready to grow. These take months of cold storage to be ready. No since in getting a seed u need to wait six months to plant.
