Default Basjoo?

I may be wrong but these don't look Basjoo to me. This could be one of the reasons people don't know what kind of plant they have.

I agree ... I don't grow Basjoo, but none of the references that I see show the plant as having wine stains. Those are likely DC or SDC.

My first thought was Dwarf Cavendish, then I looked at the tag and thought they tagged it wrong. People will buy these and wonder why it didn't come back, it said it was hardy.
