An easy way to point us in the right direction is to post a photo of the pseudostem surface towards the bottom of the plant UNDER the outer-most sheath, you want a surface that has not been exposed to sunlight. Peel back an outer-most layer and take a look, if it is mostly a deep and or bright red, it is Cavendish. This trait can sometimes be somewhat reduced when grown indoors/greenhouse, but there still should be lots of red.

So the stem underneath is a pinkish red. I have some super dwarfs I bought last year from Loggee's and their stem is the same pinkish red.
They have been in the greenhouse since last October and will soon be coming out.
On the other hand the one I posted about in this thread further up, the one that is super pot bound, it is white under the lowest leaf.
