Health benefits of bananas
There are fresh bananas accessible throughout the year. Unlike other fruits, after being picked, the ripening method of bananas will not slow down. It is necessary to store bananas at room temperature.
The hotter the temperature will ripen the quicker bananas. However, bananas should be refrigerated to slow ripening. The banana's exterior peel will obscure, but the banana itself will remain intact for longer.

Bananas, though often called banana palms, are not true trees, not even palm trees. Bananas are herbs that are perennial.
(Gingers, heliconias, and bird-of-paradise flowers are remote parents of bananas. Zingiberales are in the same order.) Banana stems consist of all the leaf stalks wrapped around one another. New leaves begin to grow indoors, under the floor. They push up the center and emerge from the crown center. That's how the flower transforms into a bunch of bananas.
Here is a series of pictures illustrating how the flower first looks and how the bananas appear and curl up to the light.
Those photographs have been taken over a few days. You can see this happening fairly much. But now, depending on the temperature, it will take another two months or so for the fruit to fill out and lastly mature.
It requires about 9 months for a banana plant to develop and generate a lot of bananas. Then the plant's mom dies. But there are plenty of suckers or pups around the foundation, little baby plants.
There is a large rhizome called the corm at the base of a banana plant below the floor.
There are many increasing points in the rhizome and they transform into fresh suckers/pups. The suckers can be removed and transplanted, and the mother plant can be replaced by one or two.
Great, so now you understand what to do when bananas grow in your garden.
How to Plant and Care for a Banana Plant
It may seem like time in March or April to plant the banana plant on one of those hot days. After all, from the tip of the dormant plant, you may see a hint of green peeking up. But stop planting it outdoors until it's hot at night. Temperatures below 55 degrees Fahrenheit do not like tropical crops. Planting in your area is best after the frost date that's the day you can be sure it won't go below 32 degrees F at night anymore. Traditionally, that day has been Mother's Day in my region.

.Plant in sunny weather. A little shade of the afternoon is all right.
