Default Banana with Amnesia! Please help? Do you know his name?

This mat of bananas is growing in Pensacola in zone 8b. It is growing in front of a Chinese restaurant. They are suffering from Group Amnesia and they would like to know their name. If you recognize these bananas PLEASE say something. End the suffering. Tell them their name.



This mat had three flower stalks. Just from the looks the banana looks like it may be long and slender like what you get at the store.



Here is another of the flower stalks.



This is a closeup of the bloom. Hopefully someone will recognize them.



And a closer closeup. Anything look familiar. They sure would like to know who they are.



The group overall is about 12' to 15' tall. The bloom height pictured is about seven foot off the ground. That is the current height of the bloom. There are hands above it.

OK can anyone give these bananas some peace? Tell them their name.

Thanks

PS I will have to verify this but I believe that the bananas in question where in the ground during the 2010 freeze which saw two weeks of every night below freezing and two separate nights of 19 degrees. I will look into this.

AS ALWAYS IMHO AND YOUR MILEAGE MAY DIFFER!!!!!!!!

Life - Some assembly required, As is no warranty, Batteries not included, Instructions shipped separately and are frequently wrong!

Kentucky Bourbon - It may not solve the problem but it helps to make it tolerable!

Statistics - Data that analyst twist to support the insane opinions of those that pay them.
