Description

Musa acuminata x balbisiana ‘Blue Java’. 3.7L coir pot.

The fruit of this fast growing plant develops a blue tint whilst growing, turning to yellow upon maturity.

Also known as ‘Ice Cream Banana’, the fruit has a vanilla ice cream, custard-like flavour.

The plant enjoys a full sun position in well draining soil, and usually grows around 5m high.

‘Blue Java’ is more cold and wind tolerant than many varieties.

Bananas are heavy feeders, so feed the soil and water regularly.

Self-pollinating.
