I have a friend in Houston TX that who's neighbor is growing bananas that they never bother to harvest so she decided to try some that are hanging on her side of the fence and would like to know what kind they are. I have several photos and some info to share about this banana.
The plants are about 12' tall.
Fruit is 8" long, 7" in diameter, firm in texture, a slightly citrus over tone, not overly sweet, smooth texture.
They taste like bananas but don't smell like banana.
