Mysore Banana (Musa)
Mysore bananas are celebrated for their exceptionally sweet taste and delicate skin, placing them firmly in the dessert banana category. These bananas are distinctively short and plump, earning them the occasional nickname of "berry bananas" due to their uniquely sweet and tangy profile.
Growing predominantly in subtropical regions, the Mysore banana plant stands between 3-4 meters tall and is easily distinguishable by the pinkish-purple undertones on the midribs and rear of its young leaves. While they bear some resemblance to the Misi Luki variety found in New Zealand, the two are distinct. In India, the Mysore banana holds a significant place as a staple dessert fruit. With its hardy nature, it thrives particularly well in Northern New Zealand.
