Thanks for the picture Basjoofriend.

Did anyone notice that the balbisiana has red/purple leaf backs, and the new shoots are purplish??
The picture looks of the German balbisiana looks EXACTLY like my Musa thompsonii, which also has the rounded leaf bases. But then again there maybe a lot of himilayan bananas with those features.
