Hua Hin Services Organic Garden Tip: Banana Plant Facts 🌱🍌

Did you know that a banana "tree" isn't actually a tree? It's a large herbaceous plant from the genus Musa. The sturdy stem you see is made of tightly packed leaf bases, creating a tree-like appearance.

Interesting facts:

- A banana plant produces fruit only once, then the pseudostem can be cut off

- New shoots grow from the rhizome, but excess ones should be removed

- Bananas are propagated through suckers - shoots from the plant's base

- These fast-growing plants can reach heights up to 7.6 meters
