here is a picture of the flower. i made sure to try and get good pics of this thing and document its growth habits. i looked all over the net to try to compare my leaves with some of the photos of banana growers...all i get are pics with severely shreaded leaves. some of the varietes i search for give the same pics...some of the pics show only the flower or the fruit..

here is a wide shot of the whole plant.im not a pro photographer but i try to get a few good pics. well as you can all can tell by the flower its not basjoo.
