A banana tree is not actually classified as a tree due to the fact that it has no wood fibers. So it is actually a plant, IE: Herb. A berry is an indehiscent fruit with two or more seeds and a fleshy pericarp, which is exactly what a banana is. This is not a debate it is fact that bananas are berries. But of course most will argue just as most debated that avocados are veggies and not a fruit which we all know now they are actually a type of fruit
All I remember about bananas is that back in the 60s when it was rumored that smoking dried banana skins would get you high, you could not find one anywhere within 25 miles of Berkeley.
