Default Tall Namwah bloom

Last year a broken P-stem denied me the pleasure of tasting this variety but this year I am ready. The bloom pushed yesterday and I have a brace ready. Should have plenty of time to ripen.

How tall is your Namwah?
I notice on my Namwah the latest leaf is much shorter. Maybe it is ready to bloom?

Sorry guys,

I can take pics but have problems posting them since they said I have too many and I have to post them off forum. Takes too long and I have to do it one pic at a time. With my old computer I'm lucky I can post words. I'm looking for a new computer now.

I'll try to measure height tomorrow!
