Today's theme is Pink.
Presenting something different ~ the non edible Pink Banana or Musa Velutina Pinkie. Photo taken at Unker's house in Kuching, Sarawak.
The banana tree looks exactly like the normal banana trees except the fruit is pink in colour :)

Selba,
Hehehe.. The fruit looks nice but it has no nice aroma like the edible yellow banana. And the fruit is pretty hard. Even the birds and the other animals are not interested with those pink banana :)
Trinity,
Kekekke.. I don't think anyone will bite the banana since it's hard and not edible.
Thanks, i will visit your post soon :)
