Nice Jared. This cultivar is pretty much the only true Horn Plantain in the states, there are many different varieties in Africa however. They are characterized by being a true plantain banana that produces only 1 hand of fruit and no male bud. Other varieties of plantain bananas can be False Horn, French Horn or French.
