At first I thought, Brazilian, looking at the plant growth and structure, but Brazilians have different colored flowers and are done making bananas and begin with male flowers immediately upon the flower's turn toward the ground.
Probably something in the Pome family I bet.
Brazilians are very cold hardy and disease / pest resistant. Small fruits, but not too small, but very tasty, one of my favorites. Also known as the Hawaiian Apple banana.
