Wait, why is banana classified as a tree in this diagram? I'm pretty sure they don't have any wooden core. I'm definitely no expert, but as kids in the ninetie

Wait, why is banana classified as a tree in this diagram? I'm pretty sure they don't have any wooden core. I'm definitely no expert, but as kids in the nineties, banana plants were always cited as the example of how large plants are not always trees. Did they get recategorized?

The hardy banana tree is actually an herbaceous perennial (the world's largest) despite being referred to as a tree.
