Musa basjoo, at Purdue Horticulture Gardens. Picture taken July 14, 2010.This plant is labeled here as Japanese Hardy Banana, but it now becomes evident that its origin is colder climate regions of China.
Named Musa basjoo by Von Siebold from the Japanese "basho" meaning banana, which in turn came from the Chinese "ba jiao".
