Re: help cant figure out whar banana i have!
Based on the shape of the pseudostem (fat at the base) and the upright, silvery leaves, it kinda looks like musella lasiocarpa. Not for sure though.

Re: help cant figure out whar banana i have!
The one with the pup is a Dwarf Cavendish or Dwarf version of Cavendish cult. of sorts. :^)

Re: help cant figure out whar banana i have!
That first one is Musella lasiocarpa, not an Ensete.

Re: help cant figure out whar banana i have!
Other ones are definitely some sort of Cavendish. Based on the color of the p-stem, I'll guess Gran Nain.

Re: help cant figure out whar banana i have!
Thanks guys for all the help. I just upload a pic of I guess pup coming out of it,but it is really wound up in it. Is that normal? Of course I don't know how to get the pic on here.

Re: help cant figure out whar banana i have!
The pup just confirms that it's a Musella. Ensetes generally don't pup.

Re: help cant figure out whar banana i have!
I never bothered with mussellas
Every dwarf cavendish I've ever seen never had that much red. its mostly green with dark markings on the pstem. The plants in the black pots are more likely super dwarf cavendish or gran nain the two look almost identical only the sdc never gets near the size of gran nain. This is based on what I've seen.
