I know this is somehow silly but im just curious what u guys think about a banana. Do you think banana is a plant? or that banana is a tree? They will not call it a tree because the main trunk is not so hard enough compared to the regular tree trunk. What do you think guys?

I always thought it was a tree. My grandparents had a banana palm out back of their house in Florida and we always called it a tree.
