Banana flowers are usually a deep burgundy colour. Interesting that this one is more like golden. I wonder if it's a decorative variety or just a different type?
I'm really enjoying the tour of these magnificent gardens with you.
A impressive banana palm near the entrance to the gardens.
That just looks so warm and tropical Jilly, so good!!
ReplyDeleteThese look like squat little sugar bananas, Jilly. I am trying to refrain from commenting on the shape ...
ReplyDeletewhat an extraordinary blossom.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen one close up--thanks for showing it.
