Re: What's blooming in your garden? (bananas)
Definitely not Orinoco. Looks kind of Namwah like, but the fruit didn't taste Namwah like to me. Great texture, nice taste. It's a winner -- at least based on the fruit from it that Tony gave me. I hope I can replicate his success with it! The one I got from him is growing well.

Re: What's blooming in your garden? (bananas)
James, very nice. How tall are those two plants? Seems like my DC should be close to flowering, it's about 5' of p-stem. My Manzanos have a ways to go since they're only 4-5'.

Re: What's blooming in your garden? (bananas)
Indeed it is. I thought basjoo was yellow? Since I don't bring my basjoo inside for the winter, I guess I'll never see a flower as they die down to the ground every year. In any case, it'a a banana flower and fruit, my first, and I love it even if it's not the most colorful!

Re: What's blooming in your garden? (bananas)
The plant (E. glauca) is slowly sinking into the ground. It has lost 2 feet in height since the bloom was first noted!!??
