Greetings from Northern California San joaquin valley
 
Hi there. So my blue java started flowering and fruiting last fall. Now that winter is over will my fruit continue to get bigger. All signs point to that....petals on flower are opening, pups are active, fruit is still green. Hoping they will keep growing....it's a huge rack probably 60 bananas.

The rachis appears to already have about 75 bract scars so it's doubtful the fruit will mature. If you look at how the bracts lift on your plant it is most likely a wild balbisiana and it doesn't resemble how the bracts lift and curl on a blue java.

You can find plenty of photos for comparison on the following site.
