Default Black stemmed edible, Lake Chapala MX

This was at a restaraunt in Ajijic, Jalisco, MX, just outside of Gaudalajara. It overlooks a really big lake (Lake Chapala).
What surprised me was that is had such dark stems, and red markings on the leaves. Sorry no bloom photo.

I think its is not an ele ele, because the leaves of ele ele have no brown stripes!

Looks like some kind of Musa acuminata type, probably in the Cavendish group. Nice pics! Keep 'em coming!

I think you guys might be about the Cavendish group, but not dwarf. Saw alot of other giant cavendishes, but totally green P-stems.
