Default Pre Flag Leaf
Just thought I'd share with you what a Pre Flag Leaf looks like. This is my Dwarf Brazilian. The pre flag is about 2 feet shorter that the regular leaves. This week the flag will appear followed by the flower bud.




Notice here how the pseudostem is bulging at the top. That's because the flower bud is inside there.
