Banana plants are amazing. I have heard that the plant dies after it produces?

Very interesting. I thought they grew straight up, in a bunch. Thank you for sharing. This Northerner has a lot to learn,

beautiful photos!! I'm from Houston, Texas and we used to have a banana tree in our backyard. It gave small banana's but had those beautiful colorful leaves/blossoms. Love banana plants!! Our tree didn't die. I lived there about 10 years and it was still going strong.
