Red Thai Banana
"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!" |
