They can also be baked, fried, dried and toasted when unripe. Red bananas have more beta carotene and vitamin C than yellow ones.Trees will grow to between 4-5m, or more in good conditions, with an attractive red hue to the pseudostems. This variety is showing some promise growing in cooler urban areas, like Sydney and Melbourne

I have always wanted to grow my own banana, a goal since I was about 20yrs old. These plants were strong & very health. Thanks so much! In a few years I hope to achieve my goal. ( Although, much later in my years. )

I received my Jave Blue in Early/mid Nov 2020 & already less than 6 months later it has grown to approx 6' tall, very fast growing. A great healthy plant that's loving the sunny, wind protected spot in the garden. Growth slowing down in cooler weather.

Banana - Blue Java

My Blue Java Banana plant came in perfect condition (ofc the leaves had to be cut back in order to make the plant fit in the shipping box but surprisingly only one leaf was cut back.) The plant was packaged safely and beautifully. It was a joy to unboxed.
