Banana ‘Gold Finger’ (5L) is a hardy, disease-resistant evergreen perennial (3–4m) producing sweet, creamy fruit with a subtle apple-like tang. Ideal for home orchards or large pots in Auckland gardens, it is more cold-tolerant than many other varieties. Grow in a warm, sheltered full-sun position in rich, well-draining soil with regular water and heavy feeding. Best in frost-free spots with protection from strong winds.
