Musa Balbisiana, also known as plantain, is one of the ancestors of the modern cultivated bananas. It grows lush leaves in clumps with a more upright habit than most cultivated bananas. The flowers grow in bright shades from red to maroon. In colder climates, it needs to be kept frost free, so protection in winter is essential.

A very unusual hardy tropical plant with large leaves, arranged spirally unlike the common gingers. The striking flowers appear in late summer or early autumn, forming large red cone-shaped bracts, with several, pure white, crinkled flowers protruding from each cone. The flowers look like crepe paper hence the common name of Crepe Ginger. After the plant finishes flowering, the attractive red cone-shaped bracts remain.
