Recently, I received a banana plant called Musa Basjoo, and here are pictures of it...
Musa Basjoo is notorious for the red vein in the center of the leaves...
Sad to report, this plant was stolen from me, when I put it outside. The good news though, I have now replaced it and I am working on growing another one just like the one in the pictures again.
Is anyone else growing a banana plant? I have several other varieties also, but they are still very small.
Musa Basjoo is the hardiest of all banana plants, and the roots can even survive Canadian Winters, sending up new fresh pups in Spring. It's pretty amazing.
Any other banana hounds out there?...
