Hi!
I just bought what is called in the description of the banana a "thai black stem banana). The only banana I know related to this name is the Thai black banana. I have a few questions about this banana and any help is really really appreciated!!
First is this "thai black stem banana" the same as a "thai black banana" and is a "thai black banana" the same as Musa balbisiana??
Also how rare is this banana?
And how cold tolerant is this banana? I hear Musa balbisiana can survive down to a zone 7.
What is the growth rate of this banana?
Does it grow too fast for pots or will pots stunt its growth? (I would prefer it to grow to its full potential).
Lastly is the fruit edible?
Sorry for asking so many questions, but I want to know as much about it as possible so I can let it grow to its full potential when it arrives.
Ill post a pic if it helps w/ the ID of this plant.
Thanks in advance for any help you can give me or personal experiences with this banana.
No matter what Im Happy I got it
