Ensete Ventricosum - Red banana Leaf

Plant of the Day
Thursday 23 January 2020
Grown by many Ethiopian farmers as a staple crop Ensete ventricosum (enset, Ethiopian banana, Abyssinian banana, false banana) has over 300 varieties. This plant is principally grown as a starchy food but also as a source of fibres. The leaves can be used as plates, provide fibrous ‘wet wipes’, be processed as a food called kocho fermented from the leaf stalks (15 days fermenting above the ground and 15 days under the ground) with addition herbs and as bulla eaten as a porridge. In the U.K. ornamental varieties of this species are used to add an exotic foliage effect to plantings in the summer.

Rough timeline - part 1
-Ensete was created as an emoji -Ensete started his first games which were: Guess who, tag, life all had strange twists and a lot of chaos -The original Ensete server was created from there several games of cops and robbers were played, at least one or two more games of life, and a game of cat and mouse in the server you had to have ‘tokens’ to become a player, each person starts out with a ‘token’ and that token was the players life, if you were tokenless then (to Ensete at least) you were dead. Tokens could be traded and earned by playing the game or if Ensete just happened to take a liking to you or what you said for a brief time You could also speak to “Nan” (me) or later “Nansete” (sorta still me) for hints and just for talking, there was a suggestion box but I’m not sure it ever really got used. From here on the timeline is sketchier because I have bad memory buut -”Anti” was mentioned (and an Anti RPer was invited to the server) -this lead to a “virus” being detected, but instead of Anti being detected it was Ensete who was read as a virus -Players initiated a system reboot/cleaning sort of thing which worked to some extent, but Ensete could never fully go back to what he originally was -Ensete-Secondary was created (Nan became Nansete) -Ensete-S (E-S) began to run more... orderly games, his favourite being chess - E-S began to believe that Players/Users souls got in the way of gaming, so he began betting for their souls, only to rip them out and turn their bodies into NPCs (Non-Player Characters) - ES intended to go through and make every Player into an NPC, but first a deal was struck ooc for one of the best chess players present to fail on purpose, they wanted in and ES wanted to be sure he never lost, and so -”NPC-002” was the first? created NPC, though there was already an NPC present they were thought to be run down and didn’t interact much (more on 001 later though) -I believe the next to happen was all the Players banned together to regain NPC-002′s soul, when they did... well the -”NPC-ALEX” (the name of the RPer, or their chosen name anyway) was re/born -the Players realized ES was bad news and started working on getting him removed, and possibly bring back EP from here on out it is an absolute m e s s and hard to remember and write it all down haha They played against ES and I believe he lost? and that allowed them to bring back EP who cast ES out of the system NPC-ALEX wanted ES back as they were worried EP would just get rid of them as they didn’t care much for ‘hunks of metal’ ES told them
that software “soul” was required (whereas he usually removes said software)
We’ll continue in the next post

This close relative of bananas Ensete lasiocarpum (Chinese dwarf banana, golden lotus banana, Chinese yellow banana) is an herbaceous perennial that is considered by some to be root-hardy in the milder parts of the UK with adequate mulch and protection. I think if I had room for one it would be planted in a large container and place in a conservatory over winter. It is highly valued for its stunning inflorescence, with an large rosette of yellow flower bracts.

Also known as pseudo-banana, false banana or wild banana
Have you ate enset?
Yes
No, but I've heard of it
Haven't even heard of it
Just look at the beautiful colours on this Abyssinian Banana leaf. Mother Nature is a truly wonderful lady, isn’t she...?! #abyssinianbanana #ensete #ensetemaurelli #mygarden #mygardentoday #gaygardener https://www.instagram.com/p/B2ZEVQzAQzH/?igshid=1vin7jhyjcvzl

Rough Timeline (p2) cont.
So, after NPC-ALEX spoke to ES they went back and managed to convince a Player to go outside the system and help ES get back into it, because he couldn’t survive outside the system, he was too much a part of it and being outside it was tearing him apart basically eternally Once “Player Pond” went outside the system..
Something that I think was missed here was ES was saying “Thank you, for your cooperation. Nan” it was worded a bit weird and it’s hard playing two characters at times but that’s why I said “you’re welcome afterwards” because my own character “nan” or “nansete” which was an installment in the games helped to manipulate the Players into helping ES, basically “Nan” was typically for the Players while “Nansete” more so wanted to help the Players in a way that helped the gamemasters ES and EP
we’re nerds lol Eventually all of this lead to ES getting back in charge for a time but they were different, because they had Pond’s soul in them now and it was changing them... they slowly became afraid- of that change and of changing back, of dying, of disappearing, of just about everything The Players ofc rioted and went on trying to get Pond back, this eventually lead to a connection to the inner system, Ponds body was left outside the system but her soul was /in/ it now so she could occasionally speak through ES
a sign of ES showing fear alongside Pond (Pond was green text and ES was white)
this set of screen shots is technically backwards, whoops there’s quite a lot to the story but I think I’ve mostly gotten the bullet points across? The Games ended up being dropped before Pond could be saved or any such thing so they shall forever be a Lost Pond uwu
