All-red thai banana slowly making its way into the US
Red Thai Banana
From the ebay listing where it was sold:
"This is one of the rarest bananas on today's market. it comes from Thailand, where it is considered a most rare and desireable plant. This banana is not as tall a grower as some, and usually matures around 7-9 feet. (we have never seen the fruit, but this beauty is grown soley for ornamental value). It is cold sensitive and would need winter protection outside of Zone 9B. Here in the USA, very few collectors have managed to get this plant, and then, only at very high prices.
This beautiful plant produces leaves that emerge a pale green with some red, and, as they mature become either solid red, or about 98% red. Amazing! I have attached a picture of a more mature plant, taken in Thailand at the nursery from where this plant was purchased. You can easily see why this plant is in such high demand!
The actual plant for auction is also pictured as a shot of the whole plant, and a close-up of one of its older leaves that has become solid red. The actual plant for auction is 11" tall measured from the soil line, and, she is starting to take off with the summer heat. "
This last one on ebay went for $460 - the seller,
