Default My 1,000 fingers has larger bananas, is this common?

I ordered 2 1,000 fingers plants from wellspring or Florida hill and planted them side by side. Both looked the same and grew the same and flowered at the same time. One has the tiny bananas as expected and the other bunch are completely differant like lady fingers. Any explanations?

In your shoes I would consider myself lucky in that both grew and flowered, apparently one is of the variety ordered which will make pups so there will eventually be at least 1 more plant (probably more) of your choice and, assuming the fruit of the other are good tasting, a nice mystery to add to your collection. Glass filling back up IMO.
