Green banana here , thanks for helping.
About 15 years ago I was given a banana plant and was told it came from
Ecuador. I was also told that it was the tallest growing species of banana.
It was called El Saba. The banana did indeed achieve massive heights here if all its requirements were met , ample water, heat, sunshine and added nutrients.
One year the tree reached over 20' tall ( 6.5 meters )
Now Im hearing the giant El Saba is from the orient. Im really confused what banana this is . I was told I might be growing Orinoco Banana but I dont think so.
Can anyone give me a brief lecture on the Giant Saba and its habitat.
Thanks in advance for your reply.
