A year and a half after planting, it's time for our "Ice Cream" Banana Harvest! "Ice Cream" banana (AKA "blue java") put out its banana flower about 5 months ago, and is just now ready to harvest. This usually takes just 2-3 months, so it's possible the cold weather delayed it. In this video, I bring you along for our Ice Cream banana harvest, and show you how to store the banana once you've gotten the bunch off of the stalk.

Awesome very well done! I just watched my first video on your channel when you planted the java banana, nice to see it being harvested. I’m hoping my ice cream flowers this summer here in Syd, Aus too. 🌱 🍌

Just started living on a farm with several banana stands, very interested in how to care for them. This video was so great! Love your personality and appreciate having several ways to do each of the steps. We have a stand that is precariously close to a creek bed, making harvesting with a ladder difficult. Your solution to cut at the base will help a lot, and save a BUNCH of bananas! 🍌 Many thanks!
