Default What do we call this variety banana in U.S.A?

In Viet Nam is was very popular dessert banana back in 90.Back then ,everywhere you go at restaurants or people homes ,they would served this type of banana as dessert. In Viet Nam ,we call it chuối gi hương and Place in Da Lat ,they named it Laba. I am not sure it is the same variety,because I have not taste Laba Banana yet. chuối gi hương is a banana that has thin long cure up with square edges. It stay green even when fully ripe, very sweet and super fragrant. It was listed on group #1 of Laba variety in Viet Nam. I visited Viet Nam many times ,but can not find this variety any more. I do some web search and here is the link that have some picture of it. Đ€ L*T RAU & HOA the yellow banana is somewhat in group #2 ot#3 of Laba Banana.

The Philippines somewhat they have similar variety . They called it Bungulan here is the the link Banana In The Philippines: Anything You Need To Know About Banana In The Philippines


All I know at this time is that chuối gi hương is in a group of AAA+ banana,but not sure exactly its true name.

Dose anyone know the name of this type of banana ? Is anyone in U.S.A have this variety in your banana collection? Please share picture of your banana tree and fruits . Thanks
