Has anybody compared this plant with Musa sikkimensis 'Daj Giant'. The P-stem in bigdogs photo looks alot like mine. They both are supposed to have the recurved leaf(where it meets petiole) like balbisiana. I have some of the balboa park seeds and they are bigger and less bumpy than Musa sikkimimensis X paradisica seeds, but I don't have any Daj Giant to compare them to. Has anybody done this comparison? Does anybody have some pics of mature Daj giant?
I'm actually hoping that they are different types of sikkimensis hybrids. That would make the total sikkimensis hybrid count at 4 types that members here have.
