Default Re: Temple Banana

I hung them up in the garage tonight. There's 5 full hands of 11 fingers plus a few extras. Bunch weight - about 40 lbs. Compare that to my Namwa bunch of 159 fingers at 60 lbs. The nearly all the fingers are rounded, not angular. Any appearance otherwise in the image is due to coloration and not shape. Note the finger in the bottom right with the shiny spots -- this is due to latex dripping from the fresh cut of the peduncle. The proof will be in the taste. So far, I'm one proud papa!
