I was more or less just curious. Never having grown bananas or really "Studied" anything about them before last year, I had always been under the belief (as are probably most people... that don't know much about bananas) that there's Cavendish, larger Plantains and baby bananas. Now that I have several different types, I was surprised how many are tiny bananas and not larger 7-8" types.
I was also wondering just for convenience. Eating or bringing one banana with me somewhere, as opposed to 3 or 4 small ones could be more convenient.
So, Basically, what someone born and raised in the USA would consider a Dessert Banana (maybe I should have stated it that way), is really only going to be found in a Cavendish variety or a FHIA cultivar..
Gros Michel
Cavendish
Dwarf Cavendish
Williams
Double Mahoi
Grand Nain
SH3640
And a few others I'm guessing?
