Bush Banana is a woody climbing vine growing on other shrubs and trees. Its flowers are creamy in color, the thick narrow leaves grow on a short stock and the fruit is pear shaped. The fruits have good nutritional and medicinal value; the extract and paste of leaves are often used to treat pains and upset stomachs.

LOVE this fabric

This fabric is absolutely gorgeous! Am using it along with other Aboriginal fabric for a quilt (well, if I ever get the time to finish it!!). I love the pattern in the fabric, the medallion, and the vibrant (but not overwhelming) colors. Thanks for carrying these beautiful fabrics.

The fabric has a beautiful soft hand.

Stunning!

I love that Fabrilish carries these wonderful fabrics created by talented Australian artists who are named and paid for their artistry. This large motif is gorgeous. It's too beautiful to cut into so I'm using it in one piece. It would also make a stunning wall hanging just by itself.

Love this fabric.

Gorgeous fabric. Bought 1 yard and after I received it and saw how beautiful it was, I ordered more

Fantastic even as a background!

This fabric is delicious. I’m using it as a background fabric with some Kaffe Fassett brighter yellow and magentas, and it is fabulous!
