Default Re: Variegated Musa "Florida"

Hi, one of my so called 'Florida' just bloomed. I hope that the following photos will help in determining the taxa of this plant.




Now i'm very sure that it is not an Ae Ae as I got some sizeable plants (5'+) for quite cheap from a farm here (contrary to the exorbitant price on eBay), it is very easy to grow and all the pups retain the variegated form.

One more thing, plants from the same batch seem to spot varying degrees of variegation, some are 'half white' and produce pups that are also 'half white' (i'm obviously not an expert. I have no idea on the reason behind this, so pardon me, I just write what I observed )

I will post more photos as the fruits develop. If photos of other parts of the plants are needed, I will be more than happy to help.
