Default Big flower - Datil la Lima [sic]

Last week grabbed the digging bar and headed to the Datil la Lima mat to dig it up and toss it. Saw the flag and decided to let it produce one more time.

Last bunch had bad problems:

Dwarfed fingers that filled in poorly.

Peduncle stopped emerging trapping first 2 hands in the petioles - choking - had to surgically expose them.

Fruit taste was no where as good as the previous year.

This flower is 2 to 3 times bigger than last one. Same with new fingers.
