Re: Is this an Orinoco?
They say you can tell by the flowers and other characteristics like the leaf petioles, and maybe by some having wax ,or no wax; leaf vein color, p-stem.
I don't know. All the flowers thus far look the same to me. I'am still a newby and my banana education has'nt gotten that far YET!

Re: Is this an Orinoco?
Looks like one to me - very similar to mine. Maybe a bit skinny - how tall is it?
