Unknown red / pink
 

So when I bought this it had a fancy label saying “red Dacca” on it but illustrated with a pic of musa velutina fruit. I bought it on the basis that either would be a very unusual find in a garden centre in Britain and I’d be happy with either. I assumed it was velutina which is more commonly found in the uk as it can be seed grown. I’m now thinking the petiole looks shorter than on most velutina I’ve seen online though….

Looks fine for Red Dacca which is just the Australian name for common Red.

That’s a pleasant surprise then! When you say common red is that dwarf or tall. Looking at it it is pupping relatively small and doesn’t look too laggy so I’m hoping dwarf (tall varieties and greenhouses don’t go so well!)
