This is a tropical flora that gives the eyes a feasting of color and cheerfulness. It does not breed the typical banana fruit but the plant is basically ornamental.
We were on our way to a road trip when this caught my attention so I asked Bob to give me a few minutes to immortalize its beauty. The sun was nearly rising on the horizon so the warmth glow complimented the vibrant hues of the Blossoms.

never saw banana blossoms before, only bananas!
hi Frizz! this is a very tropical thing … bananas favor our climate. did you know that these blossoms that grow into the fruit are edible, but its flavor is actually an acquired taste. although i must admit they are delicious. as i mentioned, this particular banana blossoms are ornamental, there is a different variety that breeds the banana fruits 😉

hi Elizz … thank you for your encouragement as always. when i saw this, i knew i just had to take a photo of it. the pink colors seem to be rare because i keep seeing the red variety. this is not the usual “puso ng saging” (heart of palm) that we are accustomed to, though.
thank you for visiting 🙂
