I don't have a camera anymore,but the cavendish banana plants I talked about before.... have to be just that,I really looked at the stem of the plants,height,leaves and looked at a small pup that was coming up. They all look exactly like my cavendish. 6ft tall thick trunks and large leaves. The pup had the same exact markings on the leaves as cavendish do when younger. What other banana has this overall make up that would look like a cavendish and be able to over winter with out protection in zone 8? Thanks

Well I think its cavendish cause he doesn't sell any other types. But who knows could have been named wrong. Thanks
