Hardy Banana

Eastern White Pine is a large pine native to eastern North America. It is the provincial tree of Ontario.

This long-lived, rapid growing giant is known for its long, flexible blue-green needles. Eastern White Pine is low-maintenance and makes a beautiful ornamental tree suitable for large properties and parks.

The Hardy Banana is a fast-growing evergreen perennial that dies down to the ground each year. A stunning tropical-looking accent for your yard and patio, the Japanese Fiber Banana can be overwintered outdoors in several northern U.S. states and southern Canadian regions. In northern regions, you can bring this plant inside and leave it in your garage. If you enjoy Mexican cuisine, you can use the leaves to make tamales.
