ID Please
This was sold to me a year ago as an Ice Cream. I was thinking it was Namwah but I really don't have the skill to ID these things. Any help is welcome. The pseudostem is about 8-9ft to bloom and about 13ft if you include leaf canopy. The trunk is very stout and the plant sprouts pups constantly. The pups have a little bit of pink in them but they lose the pink when they get a couple feet tall. It is a vigorous grower and the bloom is absolutely huge. You can see the fruit in these photos.

Re: ID Please
Yeah, looks like a Namwah. Great plant.
