Musella Lasiocarpa
Probably the most interesting looking plant you ever seen, being a dwarfing banana plant, it blooms resembles a giant lotus flower that grows on the stem and lasted from several months to 2 years! Known as Chinese Mountain Banana or the Golden Lotus Banana, it is purely ornamental and does not produce edible fruit, though mature plants (2-3 years) make an unexpected accent for your sunroom with big colourful flowers and handsome leaves.
The underground stem (rhizome) is eaten as a vegetable, it flower is used for honey ad sometime fermented for wine making, the leaves are highly medicinal.
The Golden Lotus banana is cold and wind tolerant as it is native to living 7500 feet of elevation in the Chinese mountains of Yunnan province. The plant is happy to be the centre of attention in your beautiful garden and happily grow in a large pot and reside as an indoor plant. A rare beauty you wont see this everyday, only a handful of rare plant collectors we knew have this Golden Lotus Banana in New Zealand, so here is your chance. One off offer only.
