Lucky! I’m still waiting on my Dwf Namwah to pop out a flower. It’s about 6’8” right now. As of yesterday, I can see another roller leaf poking out. I’m pessimistic about getting fruit by winter. Glad you are doing good!

It’s so nice to hear feedback and a taste report on the real Mona Lisa! My TC from agristarts never got over 5’ and never flowered! In South America the FHIA02 Mona Lisa also called the Cuban banana is very popular and grows great!

Thanks Dan!
