Default Re: Sweet Plantain Banana seeds?

Most edible Banana, and Plantains are Hybrids unlike the wild seeded species. This makes most of them sterile without seeds, and unable to reproduce except for dividing plant suckers/pups, and you get an empty fruit with no embryos/seeds. The small black specks in a store bought banana are failed embryos, wild species musa seeds are usually large, and very hard and can break a tooth.
