My Golden Fingers Banana is Flowering


My Golden Fingers Banana is Flowering

My Golden Fingers banana is finally flowering. I haven’t had any banana plants produce fruit in four years (mostly due to the horrible drought). Photo taken March 12, 2021.

Are the flowers edible?

This variety usually produces 10 to 14 hands of bananas. The hands produce many bananas.

Wow! This is a beautiful flower, Andy! I do hope you manage to get some fruit this time round.

I usually always get fruit when my banana plants flower, if the plant doesn’t blow over from the weight of the banana cluster.

Well good luck with your bananas this year, Andy, & let's hope the tree doesn't get blown over. 👍

It has a very fat trunk, so it shouldn’t, not unless we have very strong winds.
