I just harvested my Praying Hands!
All of a sudden, overnight, several of the hands turned yellow so it was time. This was my first time tasting them and also my first experience peeling them apart. The fingers of praying hands are attached, but they do peel apart when ripe! Yes, you must peel them apart before you can peel them apart.

The peels are similar to store bought bananas in thickness.
Consistency is very similar to the store bought cavendish bananas that you are used to.
The flavor is similar to store bought cavendish, perhaps with a very very slightly more tart aftertaste, a pleasant touch actually.
Hope you enjoy the pics, I certainly enjoyed growing these and they stunned many a passerby!
