Anyway, your setup for sprouting them seems ideal.
They are two distinct species. I suppose you could say they are similar in being 2 large green Ensete species with green infloresences. But they are still very morphologically distinct. In addition they come from very different places and it appears E. perrierii has wider base (more like E. ventricosum, I have not seen E. glaucum over about 2ft wide).
