Default Re: Are there Musa basjoo that are way taller than others?

I would think that as long as there are two strains that one would be taller than the other...just like people, dogs, etc. I think with velutina there is a larger strain and they start so easily from seed there should be a lot of variation out there. Musa basjoo is more likely to be either a clone or a pup off of a clone but you'd think there would have to be at least two strains out there. That being said I have gotten pups from a friend and never had mine get nearly as large and I've given my friend at least one pup that never did well for him yet my plants thrived. So...that's a long answer to end up so vague but I certainly don't think all basjoos are the same.
