Musa ‚Velhaca‘

 

Dessert and cooking banana

 

One about 10 feet tall Brazilian banana cultivar of the group AAB and the section Musa, has similarly features like Musa ‚Mysore‘ and ‚Prata‘, can be eaten in-natura and used for cooking and frying.

 

Until today this cultivar is still unknown in Europe.

 

Since 16th September 2009 I have this cultivar in my yard in Lucianópolis, best thanks to Helton Josué and his wife Emilene.
