I already knew the full name. That is not what I was asking for. There are several different cultivars from Hawaii that belong to the subgroup Popoulu. Three that are considered Huamoa and two or three that are not considered Hua Moas. There seems to be only two that have survived in Hawaii. One that is strictly called Hua Moa, that have big long fruit and small bunches. The other is called Popoulu that has larger bunches with shorter fruit. My research is now wanting to know how they taste. Thank you
