Description

'Gran Nain' is an outstanding banana variety growing from 6 to 8 feet tall and solid green in color. Very attractive for its landscaping potential and good wind resistance. The 'Grand Nain' produces very large heads of delicious fruit. Bunches may weight up to 150 Lbs. This is a commercial variety that you buy in the grocery store. The purchased ones are good but if you grow this one yourself you'll see how wonderful these can taste. The full sized fruit ripen rapidly.
