Re: Musa gracillis
 

I have seeds but none ever germinated. Its very rare in the United States but what is sold as Musa 'Leyte White' is a white form of this species (it is very variable in color), however even that is hard to find, if I could find a reliable source I would definetly get one. Thanks for sharing the pictures. Musa violascens is closely related except it has flowers in two rows per hand (as opposed to in one row) in addition to some other differences.
