On Friday, this banana leaf shoot caught my eye.
I found it interesting to look at the leaf-in-the-making up close.
When I went to the garden on Saturday, this was what I saw.
On Sunday, I had a big surprise awaiting me!
The new leaf felt like soft vinyl. I wish I had been present at it’s moment of birth.

Wow!! it grows so darn fast…makes one want to stay up all night and watch it open up, like a famous flower in India (don’t remember the name but have written poems about it) that flowers only once a year in the night. Great photos too!

A friend of mine in Seattle has a flower that blooms only once a year, during the night. I don’t remember what it was though.

Is her plant an Amaryllis? Or does it smell bad when it blooms. I forget the name of that one.
Did you notice the banana plant behind me in the old photograph I had in my post Fluffy, the Duck?

Amazing, I found the original email. The flower is a Cereus. No, I didn’t notice the banana plant. I will take a look. The neighbors across the street have one. I wish I had more places in my yard that were sunny. I’d grow bananas and turmeric!
