Grow Your Own Banana Tree

We all love bananas, but why spend money to buy these awesome fruits when you could just grow them yourselves? The Grow Your Own Banana Tree kit from ThinkGeek lets you make your own bananas. This tree is not actually a tree, but is the largest herb in the world. Yes, you can get bananas from this tree – it’s not just a clever name. Your geeky tree will grow up to one foot in one month, and has the potential to be six feet tall in under a year! Assuming you follow the directions and do not neglect your plant, there’s a good chance that your banana tree will yield bananas, albeit after a long and un-fruitful wait. (Get it? UN-FRUITFUL?)
This kit is $10, and comes with a pot, soil, and banana seeds. The Grow Your Own Banana Tree Kit makes a great gift for anyone and could be a potential best-gift-of-any-Christmas-ever if you have nerdy family and friends. If I had friends, I would definitely love them forever if they bought me a banana tree kit.
