Sorry, that should have read woman 'grows' bananas on Anglesey but I wanted to grab your attention. ;)

But yes it's true...

Kathryn Selfe and her husband have been successfully growing a wide range of exotic fruits including mangos, limes and of course, bananas. Their secret? Polytunnels...

.

Some quick banana facts:

  • Banana comes from the Arabic word for finger - 'banaana' or 'banaan'.
  • In the West, only the Germans eat more bananas than us.
  • Some banana trees keep on producing fruit for 100's of years.
