In Colombia it is a type of plant and its fruit. Its fruits are not edible raw, as they are hard and somewhat astringent, although when ripe they could be used, but so they are somewhat soft and a little sweet. It can be eaten cooked green or fried ripe. It is also called banana, cambur or topocho. They are very similar to bananas, which have edible fruits when ripe and are very sweet. Both plants are from the family Musaceae and the genus Musa. They are not trees but perennial herbs of large size and technically called megaphorbia.
