Banana Tree

Banana tree at my mom's house. This plant also comes back year after year to flower and fruit.

Caesalpinia Pulcherima (sp?), Pride of Barbados

This plant dies to the ground every year in the winter here in Houston (z9). It survived our last 2010 freeze (20 F) and returns around May and looks like this. We've had this plant for 15 years, it's about 15 ft tall.
