The stem of a banana plant, often referred to as a pseudostem, has a unique texture that is soft and fibrous. It is composed of tightly packed leaf bases that give it a sturdy yet flexible feel. The surface can be somewhat smooth but may also exhibit a slight sheen due to the moisture content. Overall, the texture is not woody like a traditional tree stem, making it distinct to the banana plant.

I thought it was an herb... The bannana or banana is both a fruit and an herb. A banana is a fruit (containing the seeds of the plant).
