Default Re: Not Ice Cream

Seems like most of the bananas I've seen for sale at Home Depot or Lowe's near me in Ventura are from La Verne Nursery. The varieties they list as producing don't seem likely to be what you have (Cardaba, Goldfinger, dwarf Cavendish, Ice Cream, Manzano, Mysore, and Rajapuri). Of course, what they have and sell as Ice Cream could be wrong. And if they aren't TCing themselves and getting their plants from Agristarts or somewhere else, the mixup might have happened before they even got the plants. Oh, it's all so confusing with 1000 cultivars and misidentifications rampant!
