Default Re: Mystery banana at the in-laws...blue java ice cream?

I grow the real Blue Java, in looking at your pics yours seems to grow straight. A strong trait of Blue Java is that it is a heavy leaner, even the small pups lean naturally. That's why at the time of fruiting additional support is important. The fruit has a powder blue cast to it. Although fruiting height seems to vary depending on soil conditions and area. Fruiting seems to happen at 9 to 10 ft here in Texas. I have mine with fruit now and posted some pics about a month ago on Whats Blooming, IF you want a reference.
Good luck with id.
, love mystery nanners!!
Happy growing,
Darla
