Banana Flowers
This is a very good year for growing bananas in Arkansas. While the summer was dry, we had bought of rain here and there with just a slight drought. I was awarded with blooms from my two types of bananas: musa basjoo and musella lasiocarpa. My musa basjoo clump is 3 years old. My musella started producing a flower in early spring and continued to produce flowers all along the pseudostem all summer. The blooms lasted throughout the growing season.

Re: Banana Flowers
Nice pics, Austin. Your Musella is the most prolific-flowering Musella I've ever seen! Amazing.
