October 26, 2015 By Jaima Leave a Comment

Ok.. love the fact that Z Gallerie used a large banana leaf print on the end wall. This is my favorite print and have to share my banana leaf print from Charleston Home with you as well.. I have it in the guest bathroom… Love Love Love this!! This pattern really makes a design statement and you don’t have to live in the south to be so bold and tropical.

Bold Banana Leaf Wallpaper

December 6, 2014 By Jaima Leave a Comment

Trending for 2015 are tropical leaves but if you really know about style, banana leaves are always in fashion….and a classic design! The Banana leaf has various symbolic meanings.   In Africa, Banana leaves symbolize abundant fertility and are used in a ritual to make women fertile.  Did you know that the flowers that turn into the banana fruit are sterile and because of this, Buddha made the banana plant the symbol of futility of earthly possessions. In Asia, the  banana plant is considered a  very large herb and not a tree as it doesn’t have any seeds and because of this, it was considered the first gift from the gods. Classic Chinese iconography shows Buddha meditating on the key to wisdom at the foot of a banana plant. With all that  being said, I love the beauty and boldness of a large banana leaf print in a home and could easily meditate in this room. The Buddha are so wise!
