But did you know there actually is a banana canna? Yup, Canna musafolia (horticultural Lain for banana is “musa”). This bold and architectural foliage plant readily grows to 6 feet tall and its long, red-tinged leaves can easily be mistaken for those of a banana tree.
What looks like a banana tree but isn t?
Abyssinian banana plants (Ensete spp.), also called Ethiopian bananas or ensetes, look exactly like real banana plants, but they are not. They grow in full sun, shady areas with a few hours of direct morning sunlight or dappled shade.
Is it banana tree or plantain tree?
A plantain is actually a type of banana, but with a different flavor and culinary use. Like bananas they are originally from Southeast Asia, but they're grown all over the world today. They tend to be larger in size than bananas, and have a thicker skin. Plantains are also starchier and lower in sugar than bananas.
