Ensete lecongkietii, commonly known as Lecongkiet's Banana or Vietnamese Wild Banana, is a rare and relatively recently discovered species of banana native to Vietnam. This species belongs to the Musaceae family and is closely related to other bananas and plantains but differs significantly in its botanical characteristics. It was named in honor of Dr. Le Cong Kiet, a Vietnamese botanist who contributed to the study and conservation of plant species in Vietnam.

Ensete lecongkietii is a large, herbaceous plant with a robust, pseudo-stem that can reach heights of 3–5 meters (10–16 feet). The leaves are long, broad, and paddle-shaped, typical of banana plants, with a vibrant green color and sometimes tinged with red along the midrib. Unlike edible bananas, this species produces small, inedible fruits with hard seeds. The inflorescence is particularly striking, with large, colorful bracts that protect the flowers, adding ornamental value to the plant. It is primarily grown for its aesthetic appeal and is an excellent choice for tropical and subtropical gardens.
