The tiniest of any dwarf banana that we’ve seen, the Little Prince is an even more dwarfing mutation of the already dwarf Novak banana, that has all the proportions of a full-sized banana at a fraction of the size. Growing only 2-3′ tall and forming clumps, this will make an excellent container plant or a splash of tropical foliage in the understory. We’ve also heard that Little Prince can produce small clusters of bananas that are tasty to eat, but we’ve not yet gotten our plants to fruit.
