- Taste
- A compact Hawaiian dessert type with a sweet, apple-leaning banana flavor.
- Ripens
- Same rule as the other dessert bananas: plump fingers, soft ridges, then ripen the bunch off the plant.
- Zones
- Zones 9b to 11.
- Hardiness
- Treat it as a tropical. A frost will take the leaves; the corm can live if you mulch it deeply.
- Size
- Shorter than a standard banana, often 6 to 8 feet, which is why it fits beside a patio.
- Tips
- Because it stays short, the bunch can brush the ground. Prop it. Water steadily or the fruit stays thin.
- Pollination
- No partner needed.
