Flower Soon?

I inherited a banana when we moved to Florida last spring. I have fertilized it regularly and gave it plenty of water. It rewarded me by making it to about 6 feet tall. I am guessing that it is a dwarf Cavendish from the height but I really have no idea.

The last leaf took forever to unfurl, and it is sticking straight up rather than laying out flat. Is this the flag before flowering that I have heard of? If so and assuming that it is a dwarf Cavendish, how long to flower, and how long to develop the fruit.
