Nurseries often get their stock from sometimes unknown sources. I had a few nurserymen come by my farm to dig corms that they would then split and pot and a lot of things can go wrong between the source and the consumer. This is impractical advice to most people but if you want a variety of a certain banana either buy from someone who is a banana expert or actually take a look at the plant you are getting the sucker from. Off types exist. I know I must have had 4-5 different bunch phenotypes for Hua Moa.
