Re: New banana garden for children (and adults :-)
I think they started flowering mid summer, The flowers on my Esculenta's are yellow the Thai Giant flowers are white, they look like a Peace Lily. The flower drops the pollen into the section below, it then seals shut and grows. Mine have never burst open as they should when ripe, probably do to my short season for it. Sometimes I get viable seeds and sometimes not.
