With its slender shape and large, hanging leaves, the banana resembles a tree, yet it is actually a giant grass whose only perennial part is an underground stem, or rhizome. Native to Southeast Asia, several varieties of banana are now found in tropical regions throughout the world. The fruit, which is eaten green or ripe, is rich in potassium, vitamins B6 and C, and manganese.
