Default First Flag in Florida - Dwarf Orinoco
My good old Dwarf Orinoco has just raised its' first flag leaf and racime. This is the first banana in my starter collection of 15 types that has popped a racimo. Got the original corm from the Banana Tree in Easton, Pa over 30 years ago.

I'm very happy to finally post some progress here in the B-org forum. Pics of flowering hands to come.

Dan

Super!

Might I suggest though that you do not take 30 years to eat the fruit.
