I don't know what Banana tree this is... I was thinking it would be maybe a NamWah, Dwarf Orinoco? Maybe something else? Need some help. Both Banana trees in the same picture came from the same corm. I just don't know.

Thanks,

Not Orinoco, perhaps some AA, AAA cultivar. We'll need photos of the under-ribs, male & female flowers, and maturing fruit to be more specific.

FYI: it's a banana plant -- a tropical annual, not a tree :)

Petioles look totally closed. I wouldn't think AA or AAA, more likely ABB type or AAB, though those are more closed than any AAB type I have.
