Banana 'Red Dacca'

Large specimen of this exotic red banana also known as Jamaican Red and Cuban Red. This variety will have a deep maroon-red skin when ripe. Great eaten fresh when they have a sweet, creamy flavour, sometimes with berry overtones. But they can also be baked, fried, dried and toasted when less ripe as they have a higher starch content than some. 

The trees will grow to between 4-5m or more in good conditions, with an attractive red hue to the pseudostems. This variety has proven todo well in cooler parts of the world like NZ but will still need a great spot with plenty of heat to grow well and ripen its fruit.
