I noticed my neihbor had a banana tree so I ask her about it and she said, "oh those things never ripen". I told her I had just learned they take a LONG time like maybe 4 to 6 months. She was shocked! She would love to know what kind it is. It is very short compared to mine and the leaves are very wide and there are a bunch of leaves. I am 5 feet 8 and it's under me. The bananas come out of the trunk at about my chest. I took my camera over there and snapped some photos. They are in my gallery under Anna's Bannana's. :) I am going to attemp to post them here like Chong taught me but I dont' know if it will work so just in case that's where the pics are. Here goes...
