View Full Version : Can anyone ID this banana?
Hi everyone is anyone growing a banana plant from Cambodia called Chek Namva? I got this banana plant from a friend of a friend, but she wasn't sure of the name. She thought it was a Namva plant. The plant is tall about 11'. It is very hardy and easy to grow. The banana's are very good. Are Namwa and Namva the same bananas?
Thanks Susan: goteam:

Based on your photos, yes, they are the same.
Thanks for your help. This banana plant is a great producer. It looks like I will get two bunches of bananas maybe three this year. They also produce fruit when grown in containers. :goteam:
This is my container Namva. I will post more pictures as the bananas develop.
It looks like I got 3 Hands. :goteam:
