Happy Deepavali

My boss suddenly decided to plant two big banana plants in front of our shop. He asked two Indian guys to get him the banana plants. So last Saturday evening, the two guys came and attached the plants near our two bamboo potted plants.
the front view..it looks good..
Guess how much we paid for the banana plants..

Can you see anything on the banana plant?

Is the plant standing on its own?

Our customers were amazed as this is the first time that we did it!



Happy Deepavali to all my Indian customers who celebrate Deepavali!



These are the responses that we received:

Twin bananas

Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people.

Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
