Are you dreaming of growing your own tropical fruit that tastes like vanilla ice cream? Meet the Blue Java Banana—a truly special variety that’s as delicious as it sounds! At Inca Plant Nursery, we’re excited to offer this unique banana that will bring a creamy, sweet flavor to your garden and kitchen.

What Makes Blue Java Banana So Special?

The Blue Java Banana, sometimes called the “Ice Cream Banana,” stands out for its soft, smooth flesh that tastes remarkably like vanilla ice cream. The fruit’s peel starts off a distinctive blue-green color and matures into a silvery-blue shade, adding a cool pop of color to your backyard. Growing up to 10–15 feet tall, this hardy banana plant thrives in tropical and subtropical climates, making it an excellent choice for gardeners in USDA Zones 9b through 11.

Growing Your Own Blue Java Banana

This banana variety is fairly easy to grow if you provide it with full sun, regular watering, and well-drained soil. It’s moderately fast-growing and can start producing fruit within 1.5 to 2 years once established. Blue Java Banana is not only a tasty addition to your diet but also an eye-catching focal point in your garden thanks to its striking foliage and unusual fruit color.

How to Enjoy Blue Java Bananas

Blue Java Bananas are incredibly versatile—you can eat them fresh, blend them into smoothies for a creamy treat, or freeze them to create a natural banana “ice cream.” Their sweet vanilla flavor also pairs well with desserts, breakfast bowls, or even as a snack on its own.
