Green fingers in one hand

“Green fingers in”

one hand

A boy named Tuni who lived in Tonga,discovered an enormous clump of bananas in his friend’s backyard named Ceri. Banana grows in a small `suckers beside the main plant. They need rain,sunshine and warm temperature. They don’t have woody trunks,but they have stalks.

After a week some new leaves grow, they are long bright,green shiny leaves. Tuni noticed a bell-shaped flower bud waxy leaves called “brats”,after a few weeks it turn into a tiny green banana hand. Tuni saw some dark green banana fingers stretching out and turn upwards,and turned to light green.After a few weeks they turned into yellow fingers,Tuni said “It’s ripen” means it’s ready to pick,why?? because ants,bats and rats will eat it.

They took them out,and hung them up in a shady place. Green-banana are furry and starchy, over-ripped bananas are mushy. Which one do you prefer?
