Banana

Description

Banana plants have been a staple of the aquarium hobby for many years. Theyre loved for both their ease of care and visual impact. The banana plant gets its name because its tubers (where nutrients are stored) are shaped like a bunch of bananas.

Once established, banana plants will send up wavy, green leaves under the surface while also sending tall shoots to the surface where it will produce lily pads. When this happens, check to make sure your other plants arent being shaded out by the lily pads and trim if necessary.
