The largest banana tree in the world is located in Papua, New Guinea. Leaf can be 2.5 meters long and the size of ripe bananas is that of a newborn baby. it is said that the trees are of a different plant gene and some scientists believe it goes back to the days of ancient Canaan. would you eat it if you were offered?

Fantastic... another world's largest from Indonesia.

The world's largest flower, rafflesia arnoldii- Indonesia.

World's largest reptile, Komodo dragon- Indonesia.

Now, here, you have the world's largest banana tree- also in Indonesia.

And these things are always freakishly gigantic. What is it about the Indonesian archipelago though

Still thinking...

The wind has nothing to do with it. The soil, maybe. But not the wind.

So, if you get the soil factor right, then the rest should be history, as they say.

Best place to plant such a banana species would be the tropical rainforest regions in Nigeria(especially areas like Akwa Ibom/Cross River). These areas are quite similar to where this plant has its origin.

Horticulturalist should improve this banana. This may be the future banana.
