how is it grown what does it look like ?

I'm sure you have seen them. It has a wide leaf that sprays up from the ground. The seeds come up on a stalk. The greens are edible. And the leaves can also be crushed and the juices are good for insect bites. Sorry but I live rurally and my camera is out of memory and batteries. You could google it until I can post a pic. Hope this helps. Regards, Dorothea

have you grown this plant by the seeds that you are bidding? (banana's are not grown via the black seeds within, don't think plaintains would be either)
will google anyways

Sorry I didn't get back to you. I'm not on the computer on the weekends. These are not related to bananas. It is a green wild edible plant. Also has medicinal uses.
