Here are links to perhaps where you've seen this variety discussed:

Nice pretty pictures. I don't know if it's OK to download them for posting here, without permission from the photographer, though.

Thanks Chong, yes I have them. I have read the articles and written to them, but to no avail.

Here is another view of the bananas: http://tag.inibap.org/files/News/Lastets_from_Omani/
Also the descriptors in word format: http://tag.inibap.org/files/News/DESCRIPTORS_Omani_1.doc

Can't figure out why the link for the second doesn't work, but you can find it about halfway down the page on Chng's first link above.
