I got this in spring/summer as an unknown variety from Cuba that supposedly produces seedless fruits. Seems like a Fe'i to me in everything but it's not big enough to check for sap color(don't wanna risk damaging it at that small size). I ground planted it last weekend to help it grow faster hopefully and find out what it is soon! I love Fe'i but all of mine died in a cold and wet winter(their very first one in the ground) despite being in the ground. They rotted on site... Hope this one is a Fe'i but has better future in the protected spot I chose for it. Maybe the others just weren't set for a winter as wet and cool as the one they saw.

Here is my newly ground planted Musa "Cuba"!

Hope its a Fe'i and survives long term!
