This is a couple of pics of what was supposed to be Cali Gold,Gran Nain,Texas Star & Manzano banana plants I ordered that I don't believe are correct (I ordered 4 total but all of them look the same as the pics I posted),opinions are appreciated on what you think they are.

The one on the bottom looks ever so slightly more compact than the one above it, which has me thinking it'd be closer to Cavendish as Migael suggests. The thing with a lot of banana varieties is that many of their young stages look quite similar, so I'm unsure as to what the top one is but it does have some characteristics of the Cavendish-genome family (like wine marking on the leaves and its pseudostem coloring).

I wish people would just sell the correct plants, it does make a difference to a lot of us.
