When you taste the soft, creamy fruit from the Ice Cream Banana Tree, you'll agree that it was aptly named. The taste and consistency is unlike any other banana variety in the world. Often compared to vanilla custard, the flavor and texture is smooth, sweet and creamy. It's the perfect fruit for those with a sweet tooth.
 
It also makes a great ornamental addition to your tropical paradise because it produces bananas with an outer "skin" that has a bluish tinge that changes fully  to yellow as they ripen. The leaves are an unusual lime green color. Fruits are slightly smaller than common commercially grown varieties but they more than make up for that in taste.
