Description

We divide banana plants into two categories: those that produce edible, seedless bananas and others that produce non-edible, seeded bananas, also known as ornamental bananas. Ornamental bananas contain hard, pea-sized seeds. Some varieties are OK to eat, but you'll never be able to sink your teeth into them like your grocery store varieties. The banana plant species that produce the bananas you can find at most grocery stores are the Dwarf Cavendish and Gran Nain varieties. There are many varieties that produce edible bananas with diverse flavors, sizes and textures, including Dwarf Orinoco, Blue Java (Ice Cream), Goldfinger, Sweetheart, Popoulu (Red Trunk), Dwarf Namwa (Pisang Awak), Tropicana, Veinte Cohol, Truly Tiny and so forth.
