Looks a lot like 'Raja Puri' to me. RP tends to be all green. Have you ever seen any red blotches on the young leaves? If so, it could be 'Dwarf Cavendish'. It looks like you may have it in quite a bit of shade. If it's in a lot of shade then the red blotches on the young leaves may not be exhibited.

Wow, that is one attractive little plant! I have not grown a banana plant just yet, but I'm working on germinating some seeds for musa dasycarpa.

I just can't get over how cute that one is, in your picture NataliK! Sooooo nice. Thanks for showing. Will it get much taller than that?

It looks like "Dwarf Cavendish". The poossibility of being this species is
very high, I think.

Re: Help, please

Half a day of sun and half a day shade. Is it enough? I look "Dwarf Cavendish" picture of the net and I think it is posible that is the same species like mine.
Can "Dwarf Cavendish" survive winter in garden on zone 6?

It would die off even in a subtropical paradise, such as Makarska riviera. :(

Check your PM's. Sent extended info on over-wintering bananas that may help.

Something in the Cavendish Family, most likely.
