It's a dessert banana, and only so far they have only been gotten through pups. I wonder however if it would be possible to do a Tissue Culture on that plant to make it more readily available. Some argue that it's only a sport of a D.O. However, many say it does better and fruits better in the Central Valley, CA than the Dwarf Orinoco and withstands the weather better. I hope to find one for sale at one point. I'd like to learn how to do Tissue Culture one of these days myself. But that's another story for another day.

*Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on any of this btw, I'm still pretty green*
