In southern CA, it fruits at 5 foot to 6 foot (about 1.5 meters) of pseudo-stem height. The p-stem has a classic reddish stain. The leaves are reminiscent of Cavendish but have no markings. It produces an abundance of small fruits, 4-5 inches long and 3/4 inch wide (11 cm x 2 cm), which are followed by numerous male flowers. It is a prolific pupper in my garden.
