The name Pisang Raja is used for so many cultivars it has been declared ambiguous. However, you have these synonyms:
Pisang Raja Sereh == Monzano
Pisang Raja Udang == Red Dacca
The true Raja Puri is in the Mysore group with AAB genetics.

Rajapuri is a banana native to the Punjabi region of Northern India. There, it grows at the base of the foothills of the Himalayas, which is likely why it has more cold tolerance, since the sweeping cool breezes in the winter time can drop the ambient temperature quite a bit. If you've never visited or seen the Himalayas, I definitely recommend it for one of the places to visit on your Bucket List. LOL!

Ante,
My sister has Rajapuri in the hills of Riverside, CA where it gets down to about 24 degrees Fahrenheit (-4 C) for short periods, so it's quite a bit better than many. I think Orinoco is very similar in cold tolerance and both will usually fruit the same year after a winter's partial die back.
The trunk on a mature Rajapuri is massive. It seems to create a very nice stable mat and never needs propping, since it usually fruits at 6-7 feet.
