Definitely not a Hawaiian variety of any kind, looks like a 'Dwarf Orinoco' to me so far.

I didn't realize Dwarf Orinoco was so short. I thought Dwarf Orinoco was about the same size as Dwarf Namwah, but there are about 6 of these and they are about the same size as Gran Nain, Dwarf Cavendish, or Dwarf Super Plantain.

It's growing fast. Our season just ended and the average yield reported by one of the mills was 45 tons of cane per acre.
