I purchased some seed last winter. The seller said they were musa X paradisiaca. I planted the seed and two come up. I place them in a pot and today they have bananas on them. I have never saw bananas produce that fast and that small. I will try to get a picture on.

Thanks for letting us know. I won't buy from them any longer since they rebuked me for telling them that their Cavendish seeds will not grow edible, seedless bananas. They insist that they are correct.
I used to buy a lot of seeds from them, and some plants, too. But not not after that. I had the Musa x paradisiaca seeds too. I bought them when I first became interested in bananas. That, and lots of other foolish purchases I made to sate my hunger for bananas and tropical plants. I have learned a lot since then. Like paying ridiculous prices and shipping for 5 seeds!!!! Was I ripped off, or what!?
