Goldfinger bunch
This will be my first bunch of bananas!! :08:
It sent out a flower at just 13 months old on July19th. It's kinda short at only 5 ft tall! I'm thinking the next one will get taller. Here is today, they are plumping out! |

Looking good!
Your bud has the GF signature heart shape. I think it may be the American GF since two bracts are raised in one of your photos. My understanding is that the FHIA-1 GF only raises one bract at a time. I'm suppose to have a GF but it will only fruit next year. Give us a taste report when you harvest! |

Re: Goldfinger bunch
Interestingly the patent for FHIA-1 lists "opening two or more bracts at a time" as a characteristic of the true GF. Hmm...

They ripened! Went from starchy to ripe in a day. They taste and smell almost exactly like the Manzano from the grocery store. Very surprised by that. Didn't know goldfinger had a subacid flavor. I really like them, I imagine they will be even better completely filled out.
