How to fertilize Blue Java Banana Tree

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Blue Java Banana Tree after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Be careful folks! Check that soil! My #BlueJavaBananaTree was not doing so well, and I realized that it was because I was waiting for the app to tell me to water it but when I checked, the soil was almost totally dried out. I don’t know about other places but for #Zone9Plants it needs water way more than once or twice a week. New leaves were coming in looking burnt.
