Default Banana getting good size p-stem

It didn't stand out until I pulled up an old picture from the end of summer. I was told this variety blooms at 6 feet in a good size container. That foot of growth may come sooner then expected. I'm hoping for it to bloom in spring but that might not be the case. The first two pics are from Sept 16. What are your thoughts?

Doesn't look particularly close to blooming to me, what variety is it or what did you get it as?
