Losing the little flowers.

I have this wonderful, huge banana plant in my back yard. It is sturdy, heavily foliated but the little flowers keep falling off. When the bunch first started the first two sections of the pod that opened developed into medium sized bananas. Each subsequent opening has resulted in the little flowers dropping off instead of becoming fruit. I keep a trickle feeder on the plant and it's siblings, it rains almost daily (afternoon/evening showers)and it gets direct sunlight between about 11AM and 3PM. The rest of the daylight hours it gets good strong indirect filtered light.

Any thoughts or suggestions greatly appreciated.
