Default First Flower - Dwarf Brazilian (Sept 2019)

Came back from a long Labor Day weekend out of town to a great surprise - one of our dwarf Brazilian bananas has flowered!

Time to cut back on the nitrogen and keep up the potash feedings. I've read they can take 5-6 months to ripen. Hopefully they'll at least get some size on them in the 3-4 months of good weather we've got left before winter really sets in on the Texas coast.
