Underside of the leaf looks exactly like top side and p-stem is just plain green.

Looks like a normal dwarf cavendish or maybe a high color mini which is a form of dwarf cavendish.

Thanks guys! Its most certainly just a dwarf Cavendish.

Never had a banana before and i'm stunned by how fast this thing grows. It has already put a nice fat cigar in just 2 days.
