Seeds of Hardy Banana - Musa sp. 'Jamesonii'
Musa sp. 'Jamesonii' – Hardy BananaThe banana plant Musa sp. 'Jamesonii' is a newcomer among more cold-tolerant bananas, offered as a species with increased frost resistance. It forms a slender, exotic pseudostem with large leaves – a strong, tropical accent for the terrace, a large pot, or planted in the ground with winter protection.Character and OriginAccording to the supplier, the plant originates from the Himalayan region, where frosts occur, and its resistance is similar to the hardy varieties of Musa itinerans. It is a large perennial with an apparent stem made of leaf sheaths; its permanent part is the underground rhizome. The fruits are sweet but full of hard seeds – this is an ornamental plant, not a dessert banana.Frost Resistance and CultivationIt roughly corresponds to USDA zone 8.
