Absolutely someone who has grown a plant to fruiting will send you the real deal or, at the least, be able to tell you what they think they have; resellers of TCs just cannot know the parentage. I can pick up TC DCs any day at the big box stores; it's really hard to miss those splotches. Having moved to where there's a banana plant on every corner (not really), I'm having fun growing my mysteries which I hope members here will ID when they're a bit older and don't look so bedraggled.
