Banana - Tonga

$17.90 ($17.90-$23.90 choose a size)

Tonga, or Hopa bananas as they are also known, are a hybrid banana with qualities of a cooking banana, when they are green, and of a fresh-eating banana when they are ripe and yellow. The flesh is then soft and sweet. These distinctive bananas are endemic to Polynesia, where they are valued as part of local cultural heritage. When ripe, they have thick, waxy, yellow skin and a bulbous shape with bluntly square ends. Less wastage when cutting them up for chips to deep fry! The tall plants are fast growing, though relatively short-lived.
