Default Re: Montecristo banana

If it's the same "Bungulan" from the Philippines, it's a banana that's stays green even when ripe. The plant itself also is mostly green and grows to around 12 to 14 ft. Fruit is very sweet and soft pulp. Maybe even sweeter than the Senorita, though it does not have the same creamy texture. The size is usually the same as the store bananasa with the same skin thickness, as well.
