Default Would've been my biggest bunch ever...

But a windstorm knocked the pseudostem down the night before we returned from vacation. 38 fingers too! May not sounds like a lot to you guys in Cal. or FL, etc., but for my zone 7a yard it would have been a record. My previous best bunch was 15 fingers. Tall Orinoco:



It bloomed in the latter part of July, so I would've been able to harvest them before frost and let them ripen the rest of the way indoors. I do have two more bunches going though, but this one still stings a bit!
