Do Bananas have Seeds?

Are you sure?

Miss Leong, bananas do NOT have seeds!!

^_^

The yellow bananas we eat do have seeds, but they are so small that they are not functional, not useful for plant's reproduction.

Banana seeds are difficult to germinate therefore...
commercial plantations cultivate bananas from offshoots of the adult plant.

HOWEVER,

wild bananas carry much bigger seeds, necessary for the plant's reproduction.
