Bananas are 15-22cm long. Their shape is characteristically curved, because bananas grow upwards towards sunlight for hormonal reasons. Green at first, the skin turns yellow during ripening. The skin is separated from the flesh by a fibrous layer that makes it easy to peel. White to yellow in color, the flesh is firm at first and becomes sweeter and softer during ripening.
