Great macro shot, Sayed! I love the purple color and find it remarkable that the fruit is clothed in similar fashion to an ear of corn only facing the opposite direction.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.

If this is the period before the bloom, I'll be anxious to see that flower..very interesting view, as always, my friend. Nicely taken as well ! :)PJ

Good shot, with natural colourations and good clarity.
The background is neutral enough with a hint of detail/texture that is not distracting.
The only caveat I have is ... and I hope you don't mind me saying so ... is I think you could have cropped out some of the plant material of the right hand side. In particular, the bottom right portion.
Don't think that would bring in any additional compositional issues as the plantain is on an angle. Just some thoughts, that's all.
The colour contrasts are the standout element for me. Influorescence is quite an appropriate descriptor.
Nice work. And of course, thanks for sharing ... uhm ... let me know when it blooms ... I'm hungry. :oD (<--- Just kidding a little here ... can't find an image of your flower here elsewhere that is in relation to what I first think of when I see the word 'plantain', as in my case ... I think of a small banana.)
