Re: Musa basjoo var.?
There are no other described varieties or subspecies, but that does not mean there is not more diversity in the wild that has not been described and published yet. The one other one you may see is M. basjoo var. formosana, but it is actually a variety of M. itinerans.
The horticultural cultivars may be valid, but they would not fall under the category of botanically different varieties.
