Default What type of Strelitzia are these?

So I bought these thinking they were S. reginae, but have since seen some much smaller ones flowering, so now I'm kinda thinking they are S. nicolai. Any guesses?

I believe your strelitzia shown in the picture is nicolai, not reginae as you said. S.caudata or S.alba look very much like nicolai especially when it is young. But they are very rare so far.
