Banana Plant

The Banana Plant is a plant which was added in V.0.1 to Green Hell.

Basic Info
Banana Plant has a thick green stem and large, wide leaves. When fruiting, they will have a red bulbous pod hanging below the leaves, with a number of bananas bunched along the stem of the pod. The bananas can be collected by pressing  and eaten to provide a source of carbohydrates. Once all the bananas have been collected the red pod will disappear.

Banana plants can also be cut down and produce banana leaves which can be used for buildings. They can also produce dry leaves which can used as tinder for fires.

Players have to be careful around when walking around banana plants as brazilian wandering spiders can often be found nearby.

Plant Cultivation
The player can grow the banana plant by harvesting its seeds from bananas. The seeds than be used in the large planting box. Once the plant has grown and fully matured it will provide a constant supply of bananas for the player. Optionally it can be cut down for leaves.

Trivia
