Default Re: Recommended Plantain Variety for South FL?

I understand the Orinoco banana was or is popular with the Cuban & Hispanic culture because it ability to be used as a plantation while green and as a sweet desert banana when ripe. This may be a big reason the Orinoco banana is so common in Florida. Consider including some of these with the plantations.

I only recently tried making and eating 'tostone' using a green Orinoco. I didn't what to expect, but I could get to like them.
