Re: Musa ID+
It sure looks a lot like one of the Musa sikkimensis hybrids to me also, but hard to pinpoint which one. Could be Helen's Hybrid or even Darjeeling Giant. My Darjeeling Giant has no markings on the leaves, but Helen's Hybrid does. They are both waxy, have red midribs, and round leafbases (or "flaps", as I read on the UK forum, lol). Almost positive it's not M. thomsonii. Not Musa itinerans either, and pretty sure it isn't M. yunnanensis. Nice-looking banana too!
