Musa acuminata ‘Red Dacca’ (Red Dacca Banana)

Musa acuminata ‘Red Dacca’ is a striking tropical banana cultivar prized for its lush, oversized foliage and distinctive red-skinned fruit. Although commonly called a banana tree, it is actually a large herbaceous perennial that forms a strong pseudostem from overlapping leaf stalks.

The large leaves emerge in an attractive spiral arrangement, creating a dramatic tropical appearance and providing excellent structure in warm-climate gardens. ‘Red Dacca’ is particularly valued as both an ornamental feature and a productive fruiting plant, making it an excellent choice for tropical gardens, courtyards, and spacious containers.
