A single banana plant yields a bunch weighing up to 80 pounds, after which the plant is cut to the ground and new shoots sprout. Shoots reach 3 to 4 feet before transplanting, spaced to avoid touching other trees. Trees grow 10 to 40 feet tall, maturing 12 to 18 months after transplanting, with bananas as staple food on some South Sea islands. One cooking banana has dark skin and salmon-colored flesh, not edible raw.
