I'm still hoping for flower from my dwarf Cavendish banana plant. I attempted to move it to a sunnier spot to encourage her. the next leaf should be the flag leaf.

Over-wintering
I've got a variety of over-wintering strategies in effect: plants in the house, plants on the porch, plants in the greenhouse, and plants covered with hay.

flower?
I do believe my dwarf Cavendish is about to flower. the cigar leave lacks concentric circles. compare the two cigar leafs shown. notice one leaf has a lot of concentric circles at the top, and the other leaf does not.

Cavendish anyone?
These are my three big Cavendish plants. I had hoped they would produce a flower by now. Since its so late in the summer season, I now hope they wait until spring of 2014. I'm not going to cut the pseudostems in half this time.
Are these super dwarfs?
These are my super dwarf Cavendish bananas. At present, I can't tell any difference between these bananas and regular Cavendish. Perhaps the leaves will start to stack shortly.
Truly Tiny, Truly Cute
The true tiny bananas I'm starting to look like the pictures that I see on the Internet. I'm going to bring in during the winter and hopefully keep on growing.
