The Banana Tree: Ectopic Pregnancy?

looking from the pictures u uploaded..it's really interesting my friend.and i think there's a good scientific explaination for this.

Hi Neil, It is really strange how its growing, but it is so beautiful and just watch how it progress and let us know, it looks as though it is going to flower or fruit, I have never seen anything like it in my life, thanks Neil for showing it to us. Hugs. Tamara

Thanks for sharing the picture, it is indeed weird. This is my first time to see like this.... I do know the reason behind,but, it is really amazing!

That really is strange, neil. I've had some other plants where new plants grew from the middle of a leaf which I thought was also weird. I guess it's a mutant because they can happen any time. I have two banana trees that I've grown indoors since I've had them. It gets too cold here in the winter for them to survive outside but, this year, I planted one of them in the ground to see if it would bear fruit before it gets too cold outside. I've never had a banana tree bear fruit before; they don't normally bear fruit indoors. I do know, however, that the male flower is produced first, followed by the females so the male is mature enough to pollinate the females. But that blossom certainly looks awfully low on the plant! I have new banana shoots coming from the base of both of my banana plants. If anything strange happens to either of them, I'll certainly share it with you. There are gardening sites online where you can upload photos of exceptional plants. Maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea if you could find one or two of them and post those photos. Someone there may be able to give you a good explanation of what's going on. Thanks for posting those photos! VERY interesting!
