I think my indoor dwarf cavendish is going to flower. The cigar leaf lacks the folds of concentric circles that I normally see on my banana plants. I had another DC do the same exact thing at the exact same time last year--push a flower in mid winter when there is no sun or warmth to be found. Hmm...I wonder if this is coincidence or if there is something to this onset of winter flower thing.

The plant:

Sorry about the photo quality. It's a cell phone picture, of course.
