Will do and thanks! After reading this, I'm more convinced mine is a GM.

"Cultivars in the Gros Michel subgroup can be easily confused with Cavendish cultivars. One of the distinguishing characters is the green or pale pink colour of their underlying pseudostem sheath, compared to the bright red one of Cavendish cultivars."

One of the underlying sheaths is shown here. Produces few pups, so really just a hint of a sword for now.


The following fruit are left to right: My Dwarf Bluefields, a GM from Gabe, a local grocery store Williams from Hamakua Springs.

Taste and texture from the first 2 are much more creamy and flavorful, and color more golden.
