Trivia

 * It is similar to the Cob Cannon since both plants are controlled by players to shoot at zombies.
 * The projectiles coming from the Cob Cannon deal more damage and cover more tiles than the projectiles coming from the Banana Launcher. In exchange, the Banana Launcher takes up only 1 square and doesn't need to be placed on a pre-existing plant like the Cob Cannon.
 * The sound it makes when firing is similar to the sound the Imp Punt makes when exploding.
 * It is the only plant that speaks in game, exclaiming "Banana!" when firing a banana missile. It also says ”Banana” for every shot it shoots when given Plant Food.
 * It turns green after the player shoots the banana, similar to how unripe bananas are green in real life.
 * This is the only banana plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time.
 * This and Winter Melon are the second most expensive plants in the game, the first being Tile Turnip at 16,000 sun after seven plantings.
 * Banana Launcher and Bamboo Shoot from the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time are the only plants that cannot be planted on minecarts. This is because of the issues associated with a tap either moving a minecart or tapping on the Banana Launcher.


 * Although its almanac entry says that its area is within a single tile, its actual range is a one-by-three area.
