Default Re: Help in ID'ing Banana Plant

I am adding some additional information:

1.)The leaves feel leathery and rather thick and the veins are very prominent. Much more robust than the papery feel of my Ice Cream leaves.

2.)As you can see in some photos it has open petiole canals.

3.)The blackening at the top of the pseudostem is a defining characteristic, it is repeated on the younger plant.
