Hi, new to the site. I am thinking about planting a banana tree in a garden area near my house. I was told that the roots from the banana tree will damage the foundation of my house. Any truth to this? Please help.  Hi, new to the site. I am thinking about planting a banana tree in a garden area near my house.

I don't know why you've gotten no reply, but since banana roots never get woody as in tree roots, they shouldn't bother your foundation. They are like palm tree roots.
