I am a newbie to identifying varieties but I know it looks a lot like my cavendish except a lot more purple in its jr. leaves. I am interested in its true I.D. as well.

That's the problem with nanas from big box stores or even reputable nurseries there are so many mislabeled TCs and pups for sale. I'm sure Abnshrek sent the correct variety.
Happy Growing
