This one was labeled as Praying Hands, but unfortunately ended up being a different variety. Any ideas on the ID? Top psuedostem is roughly 12 ft...

Congrats on the fruit!

I have two "Dwarf Namwahs" that were bought at the same time, and from the same person, and they have fruited at different heights. This happens in the tissue culture world. They look nearly the same, except the female flowers look different, and the heights are 5.5ft and 6.5ft.

I'm sure that someone wil be able to ID it once they see the male flowers and ripe fruit.

Still no idea on this variety. They are starting to yellow at the top. Assuming it's a plantain variety with the size but not sure. Any thoughts?

Harvest the bunch soon and store inside. The sugar of the banana will start attracting insects.
