I'm so excited. This will be my first flower and fruit. This is on a Sweeheart banana that my friend gave me last summer. I just noticed the flower today. I haven't gotten around to mulching this area yet, but I plan to. I know it looks dry, but we just had lots of rain so the soil is moist below. I have very sandy soil, but I amended the soil before I planted. I haven't fertilized since last summer.
If anyone knows how long from flower to ripe fruit, I would appreciate that information. Is it six months?
Here are some pics:
