Info for the first:
Bought at the DIY-Market
3-4 years old
I guess it is and has been in bad or not good conditions all the time



The Market-Sign says Musa dwarf cavendish (Bananarama) - Zwerg Essbanane (last two are "Dwarf eadable banana")


Second Banana:
Also bought in the DIY-Market
2 1/2 to 3 years old
Conditions would have been the same as plant 1 so bad or at least not good



No sign for this one :/


Here are my guesses:
First does look like a Cavendish var. But since it is the same age as my Dwarf Cavendish im not so much sure if its realy a DC Because it still has the redish marks. I'd rather say its Grand Nain?! It's about 1m tall.

On the second I'm puzzled. Its much taller (not sure but i think not more than 1,5m)

Here in Germany I think Dwarf Cavendish and Basjoo is found in the DIY-Stores mostly..

What do you guys think?
