Wow, I am amazed! Musa balbisiana overwintering in Germany!

But one thing in the picture puzzles me: You say one of these plants is musa basjoo? They all look like musa balbisiana to me... Look at the way the petioles are arranged with the bottom of the leaf. None of these plants look anything like musa basjoo, simply by looking at the petioles/leaf ineraction.
The way the petioles/leaf are arranged, points in the direction of musa balbisiana.

Nice trachycarpus by the way.
