I just purchased this Banana today and I am not sure of what it is. It was being sold along with some Siam Ruby plants, however this one has only a slight hint of variegation one leaf and it is a pink streak from the mid rib out to the edge of the leaf. This plant was produce at a different nursery than the ones marked Siam Ruby and it was half the price.
If this is in fact a Siam Ruby, could someone give me some more information on it. I checked the Wiki and there is not a ton of information there. I realize it is a fairly new variety but I was wondering if anyone has had one produce fruit yet.
Whole plant:
