(KPNX) - Okay seriously, you need these in your life.
There are a variety of banana trees that you can grow, but the coolest one has to be the ice cream banana tree.
The proper name for this plant is tree is a "Blue Java" banana tree and it has a hint of vanilla flavor.
They grow up to 15 feet and they can handle the strong monsoon winds due to its strong stem and root system.
The Blue Java tree produces bananas with a blue and green color along with a snow white flesh.
The flesh is very pudding-like and can be eaten with a spoon. Many rate it as the best tasting banana.
They are fairly easy to grow, and if you live here in Arizona you can grow them right in your backyard!
Where can you get one you ask? Take a trip down to Apache Junction to the Tropica Mango Rare & Exotic Tree Nursery.
