A banana is a yellow fruit that can be found on trees in tropical locations, such as Karamja and Ape Atoll (yard at western house of monkey child and south-western crates in the warehouse east of magic shop). They can also be bought from Wydin's Food Store in Port Sarim, Solihib's Food Stall on Ape Atoll, or a Trader Crewmember for 5 coins. They can also be obtained by using the spell Bones to Bananas, which converts bones of all types in the caster's inventory to bananas. Eating a banana restores 2 Hitpoints.

A banana tree can be grown in a fruit tree patch with level 33 Farming. Players can pick six bananas at a time from these trees.

10 bananas can be placed into a box owned by the NPC Luthas on Karamja to gain 30 coins.

A single banana is required to cast the standard spellbook Ape Atoll Teleport.

During the quest Tai Bwo Wannai Trio, a banana must be sliced using a knife or other sharp sword to create a sliced banana. This is then used to create banana infused karamjan rum. Bananas can also be stuck into a bottle of Karamja rum, which plugs the neck of the bottle and creates a useless item.

Five baskets of banana (5) are required for a gardener to look after Curry trees.

Trivia

• A one-time medium clue scroll can be rarely obtained (1/256 chance) from feeding a monkey bananas. When this happens, a message appears in the player's chatbox saying "The monkey chews on the banana and spits out a clue!".
