banana is not a shrub nor a vine..
it is a large herb...
The banana plant, often erroneously referred to as a "tree", is a large herb, with succulent, very juicy stem (properly "pseudostem") which is a cylinder of leaf-petiole sheaths, reaching a height of 20 to 25 ft (6-7.5 m) and arising from a fleshy rhizome or corm.

The banana plant is the biggest of all herbaceous flowers.Banana is fairly no longer a "tree" yet a herbaceous perennial.The Banana tree isn't fairly a genuine tree; that's an herb interior the genus Musa.The upright area of the Banana tree is rather equivalent to the stem of a genuine tree and is an occasion of a so reported as pseudostem. The pseudostem of the Banana tree can strengthen as much as two-8 meters in top.From the pseudostem, great green leaves which could attain a length of three.5 meters will strengthen. you will detect extra suggestions in those web content :

neither.
not a shrub. not a vine. and like many often percive, it's not a tree.
it's a herb. a very large one at that. but scientifically it is a herb, though many call it the banana tree.
in fact, its called a "plantain"

It´s actually a tree, but cuz it doesnt exactly have a "bark" is has somethin more like a big "stem", its considered to be a banana "plant". Hope this helps. :)

Its more like a tree, although its stalk is more like a grass in that it is all soft tissue.
