That's awesome! Generally it takes a least two growing seasons north of the tropics to get a banana plant to flower, so that's great that it's already flowering. Yes, I certainly understand that feeling. I have an Ice Cream that is currently flowering, but it's got maybe a month and a half left before I have to bring it in for the winter--still a lot of time needed to ripen the fruit. So it's kind of a toss up how good they will turn out, but it's really exciting nevertheless to even make it that far!
Good luck to you with your plant--let us know how it goes
