looking good.

Do you think it'll produce seeds? has it been pollinated by anything?

Thanks
Last year's seeds were very small. I don't think it gets enough time to fully ripen. In zone 7 I'm just happy to get a flower.

Congratulations, it looks great, and your garden is amazing too!

Ps. I'v heard that Musa basjoo doesn't produce seeds!?

Basjoo does produce seeds, it's just often easier to propagate from pups

Wow, that is a really great picture, so clear. I think you should also submit it to the garden editor of your local newspaper. (Chuckle-chuckle)

Very cool! Congrats on getting it to flower! I always liked the odd color Basjoo inflorescences have!
