Hello all!
In 2016 I went touring Sarawak and in my travels in a Dayak village I found a banana clump that was around 4m tall and had mat dark green leafs compared to the rest of the clumps. For some reason I liked it and asked the family to buy a pup. They gave me a shovel and took out a small pup.
This banana grew well for me and gave me clump with around 6m tall pseudostems and large bunches. Due to lack of time I didn’t ask here on its ID… till now!
I would very much like to know what variety this is. I have uploaded some photos to show you and any more you need I can take or find in my older photos
Ripe banana bunch on my banana clump, 6meters high up the trees
Bunch. The left bunch seen is a Pisang Awak bunch from the false Ice cream
Full bunch with male inflorescence still on, fresh after collection
Photo of a young plant of this variety. You can see it has closed petiole canals
Any other photo you need for a proper ID, let me know. The fruits have relatively thick peels, much thicker peeled than pisang awak fruits and are very sweet tasting. Flesh is firm and color is whitish to off white yellowish in full maturity. No seeds of course
Thank you very much in advance!
