Hello, I was going to take this apart and put another print in it. I bought it for the frame. Well now I am wondering about it. I am frustrated because I looked up Vanilla and Coca trees, and I am not sure what this tree is? Frame is worth the $15. but what is the French hallmark? help needed! Simon said get some maybe we can smoke it!!! thanks! Don
It's a banana tree,something that was in everyone's backyard when I was growing up in Hawaii.
WOW I spent years in Ecuador Central America, etc. I think the red color fooled me! Thanks there are red bananms and finger banansa also that I have seen!
In the mid 80's I spent a couple of Years in Costa Rica, my late Husband had an assignment there. It was an absolutely beautiful country
I have been many times! In Puerto Limon I saw banana trees with large blue trash bags over the fruit to protect against insects and maybe a greenhouse effect! I am not sure! I am guessing! I was there in the 80's also!!
Crazy isn't, why we might have even passed each other and didn't know
So true! small world! do you hula?
Yes I do, have been dancing since about 4, did it professionally when I Lived in california, now I teach privately at home. I also work at a nursing home and use it as therapy. Have you been to Hawaii?
Yes I had a friend whose mother was Hawaiian, Her family was from Molokai, I spent a summer when I was 15 at Oahu and Molokai.
This is getting good. I think they might be finger bananas.
Is print worth saving? I have another I want to put into the frame?
I was born on Kauai, use to go to Oahu every summer before school started to do school shopping. Haven't been home since "88". I have 1 brother and a few cousins who still live there. To be honest I don't think I could live out ther again, be on the mainland so long I would feel cloustaphobic( I think I spelled it right). From what friends have told me Oahu has gotten to big of a city and the Aloha spirit is not so genuine anymore, now if I could go to a tropical spot it would be Bora Bora, in Tahiti, nows thats what I'm talking about, by the way I'm half Hawaiian and half Italian so no matter what way you look at it I have to talk with my hands...lol
Great story! Keep up the good work teaching!
