Default Musa basjoo-Not from Japan?
OK, so we all know the common name of M. basjoo is the Japanese Fiber Banana. However, upon reading through my latest Plant Delights Catalog I noticed that in their description of the plant they report that recent research has revealed that M. basjoo is actually from the Sichuan province of China. Is this new news or have I missed this little discovery somewhere along the way?
