I sure did! Look further up in this thread at Dangermouse's posts of shots of the same bloom taken about 2 weeks apart.

I know, the colors are amazing. I didn't process that photo at all, except reduce its size. I'd grow it just for the flower!

Awesome photos Mary! You have a great looking banana and flower! Btw,your Dwarf Namwah doesnt look dwarf to me at all. If its Namwah,its the regular(Tall) one,not the dwarf,and in my opinion looks way way better than the dwarf and produces a little better as well so its great you have the tall one!

The leaf petioles are too long and the leafs even longer as well while dwarfs have very short petioles and very wide looking leafs with relatively short length.

I'd agree with that. The petioles are too long for it to be a true dwarf.
