Musa basjoo Sakhalin is not from the Island Sakhalin, it comes from a Russian guy called Sakhalin. The origin of Musa basjoo is situated in Yunnan and Sichuan in China. It is the most northerly growing wild banana wich explaines its coldhardiness. Its is grown in many parts of China and from there it has been introduced in Japan several centuries ago. And from there it got to Europe in the 19e centuries. It has been described by von Siebold.

P.s. Saporro lays on Hokkaido.
