Default Re: I Have A Bloom In April!

Sorry for the misunderstanding, I don't have a plant in bloom, I have a Dwarf Cavendish that made it through the winter in my 3 season room, and is looking really good since we got our first 60 degree temps this past weekend, I'm a first time ever trying to grow Bananas and Citrus since last June, I'm elated with fact that my DC made it. Three season room is unheated but lots of windows, in early Dec. I covered the windows with an opaque plastic to cut light and watered sparingly, she made it and has pushed some new leaves in the last couple weeks. For me I'm ecstatic, this plant has become my Task. Check out my gallery for a little history on this plant and my step kids, ( Very affectionately known as the S.O.S, spawn of satan) Awe I love'm and they know it, but still it's fun mess'in with them, They're my measuring stick for the Banana plant. I wish my plant had a flag leaf, but alas, I'm new and very inexperienced, But looking to warmer weather and SUN.
