Musa × paradisiaca is the accepted name for the hybrid between Musa acuminata and Musa balbisiana. Most cultivated bananas and plantains are triploid cultivars either of this hybrid or of M. acuminata alone.

Linnaeus's name for dessert bananas, Musa sapientum, is thus a synonym of Musa × paradisiaca.

The seeds are dispersed by means of the wind. The plant is monoecious with both sexes in each flower. It is unknown what causes the pollination to occur. The plant grows in sandy plains and coastal lowlands from sea-level to altitudes of 400 metres. It is a widespread species which is not in danger, and the conservation status has been assessed as 'least concern'.
