(Baonghean) -In recent days, people from near and far have flocked to Mr. Nguyen Van Minh's house in Chau Khe commune, Con Cuong district to see with their own eyes a strange bunch of bananas with more than 170 bunches and a length of up to 2.5 meters.

Mr. Minh said that this is a banana variety (also known as banana) that he planted last year. In the process of taking care of the tree, he did not do anything different from the banana trees planted at the same time. More than 3 months ago, the banana bunch began to bloom and bear fruit. Since then, it has produced more than 170 bunches and shows no signs of stopping. According to our observations, the banana bunches are densely packed, the fruits are not even.

This strange banana bunch has been passed around by word of mouth among the locals, so these days Mr. Minh's house is always crowded with visitors coming to admire and see with their own eyes the banana bunch, which is the first time in their lives they have seen it.

Currently the banana bunch continues to bloom and bear fruit, Mr. Minh has to use some bamboo sticks as crutches to prop up the banana tree, to prevent the banana bunch from touching the ground or breaking.
