Pink bananas

This isn't new news, I'm afraid, but I found it while googling Kew's wonderful Millennium Seed Bank project and thought it was worth a post. Last year, the seed from the endangered pink banana was the last one in the then collecting goal of 10% of the world's plant species to protect from possible extinction.

The next target is 25% by 2020.

Very inspiring and worthwhile and the kind of thing that's really worth supporting. Go ahead and adopt a seed.
