Have You Met Banana?!

Banana is the new addition to our family! I’ve wanted a banana for years, but haven’t had the room or sunlight. This Valentines Day my wonderful husband bought me my beautiful banana, and I couldn’t be happier…BEST gift ever! Flower’s are nice, but they only last so long.
You’re probably thinking…is banana a banana tree??? NO, that’s just what we’ve named him/her. Banana is a Fiddling Fig tree from tropical West Africa. If planted outdoors they are said to grow up to 50 ft. high. But since we are not in a tropical climate banana will stay in doors and grow from 8-20 ft. (our living room ceiling is only 10 ft.). We’ve named our fig banana because bananas are good and monkeys like bananas…Kevin calls me a Monkey.
