Re: What am I?
I'm just a novice, but it looks a lot like my Dwarf Orinoco.

Re: What am I?
Yeah, you're right, those long petioles look like they belong to the Tall rather than the Dwarf. Lots of vertical spacing between the leaves, too, which wouldn't be expected in a potted Dwarf.
I'm pretty excited I got the 'Orinoco' part right, though, even if it was the wrong one

Re: What am I?
Looks it like it could be pretty much anything in the ABB family, like Ice Cream, Orinoco, etc.

Re: What am I?
Yep, does look like an ABB. I'd guess tall Namwah (= fake Ice Cream). You won't be able to narrow it down much more than ABB genome until it blooms.
