More a naming question
I have some dwarf ducasse, looking into the naming, ducasse is also called pisang awak which is aka namwah? Is this correct? Is dwarf ducasse dwarf namwah?

Re: More a naming question
I may be wrong but I understand the word ducasse is from Australia. It is a namwa/dwarf namwa. The word Kluai Nam Wa in Thailand is the same banana. Different place/language. In Cambodia it is Chek Nam Wa.. somewhere it's Pisang Awak (Malaysia maybe) etc. could be different sources and clones but the same thing or very similar. just what I think. Gabe can clear this up I'm sure.

Re: More a naming question
They are all synonyms for Pisang Awak bananas. Ducasse is indeed the common Australian name for them. Dwarf Ducasse should be Dearf Namwah if true to type.

Re: More a naming question
Cool, I did some more reading and found pisang ceylan is also mysore. This is why I tell people in here to check what they have is correct. There are 3 types of banana masquerading as lady finger, I know mine is right as it came tc but the other two? Also one red dacca that is green (might be a reversion) one called asian, another called primitive, a monkeyfinger that should be sucrier but isnt and a plantain called tall plantain. Ĺ
