Hi all,

Thought id share some photos of one of my Cuerno de Alce plantain. Noticed it started to bloom a couple of days ago and started making some photos. This post will be updated periodically (or will add replies, not sure which one is better) as time goes by.

A view of the whole plant

A view of the pups, was pruning them until a few weeks ago when noticed the base was getting swollen which i thought was a sign the bunch was coming soon.

A detail of the flag leave

Another detail of the flag leave

Edit: Decided to measure the plant.
8ft'ish high, from the earth to the intersection of the last leave and the flag leave
23inch circumference about 1inch from the earth
