Default HELP ID This banana

I just picked this banana plant up from a local garden shop and was told it is a Basjoo from the owner. I already had a Basjoo so I thought, that is all green. This banana plant is green with these darker red or wine spots on the upper side of the leaf and almost solid dark red or wine on the under side of the leaf and stalk. Can someone identify this banana plant and tell me its name and hardiness? It looks like "dwarf cavendish" or "young blood zebrina" from searching web sites. I am a zone 7b just outside Charlotte NC. and want to know if it will survive my winter. Thank you so much for any help. Red
