If you're looking for info on how to grow this banana look for musa itinerans. The whole "Mekong Gaint" name seems to have appeared very recently. Brians Botanicals site says he's been growing it for years, so I suspect "Mekong Giant" is either just a new name for Musa itinerans, or a improved variety of Musa itinerans.
