PRODUCT INFO Banana leaves are large, wide, elongated, and slightly rounded, averaging two meters in length, a half a meter in width, and 8-12 leaves per tree. The surface of the leaves are waxy, flexible, and glossy, and range in color from lime, olive green, to dark green. There is a central midrib that runs the length of the leaf and two laminas, or leaf halves are found on either side of the midrib. The leaves do not have branching veins, and this makes them vulnerable to tearing easily. Banana plants also have a pseudostem, which is a false stem that looks like a trunk but is multiple fleshy leaf sheaths that are tightly overlapped. Banana leaves have a grassy and sweet, green flavor. USES In addition to culinary uses, Banana leaves have also been used in the Buddhist and Hindu religion as decorations and as bowls, plates, and offerings in special religious celebrations such as marriage ceremonies. They are also used in India and the Philippines to construct fences and thatched roofs and have even been used as umbrellas. SEASONS Banana leaves are available year-round.

Rhubarb: Timperly rheum rhabarbarum We dispatch out rhubarb crowns during March and April. They are sent out as small, 1 year old shooting plants. This means that they will establish very quickly when planted out in the spring. If the ground is not ready the crowns can be potted up. Rhubarb is a perennial crop and will need a permanent site. The stems grow very quickly from late winter making rhubarb a valuable early crop. The leaves particularly, and the stems, to a lesser degree, contain oxalic acid, like spinach and beetroot. So be careful if you have a sensitivity.
