Hi
Is this the flower and will it come to any harm as it is or will I have to hold it up some way, this has happened with the wind I think.
It's the first photo in my photo gallery, sorry but I don't know how to put it in this forum.
Thanks

Hi there George... first, yes, and a very BEAUTIFUL FLOWER. Not sure what "this" you mean by being caused by the wind, are you speaking of the flower falling over to the side? If yes: it's natural for the flower to fall over and grow from top down, and the bananas hang from the tree. Different varieties however do go other directions: side ways, a lot of ornamentals go straight up. What variety is this? It's a very beautiful flower!

Now, lets help you learn how to post pics! When you finish uploading a picture, click on it! When you see the picture page loaded, below the picture is a set of three different codes. You want to click your mouse on the code beside where it says "code for bulletin boards" and copy it. When you click once it automatically highlights the code for you (in IE, not sure about other browsers). You then copy it, and you do this by right clicking and press copy, or you can click the code and hold down CTRL + "C". When you get to the thread and make your post, you then right click where you want the picture (before submitting of course hehehe), and select paste, or press shift + insert, or CTRL + "V" (I just learned that last one hehehe). It'll look like this: http://www.bananas.org/gallery/watermark.php?file=11147&size=1[/img/url]. Good luck with that! :goteam: It takes a little practice!

Here's your picture:

By the way this morning the flower was straight upright and we got a bit of wind so when I went out later the flower was bent over. Sorry I don't know what type it is.

Yeah, the flower would of naturally done that on it's own. Can't say whether the wind helped it in this instance or not, but it would have happened regardless. How tall is it?
