Re: Musa spp (Vietnam)
It is Musa splendida, or perhaps one of the other very closely related species like M. exotica, M. lutea, M. paracoccinea...(which are still being worked out, plus there are a few undescribed ones). But M. splendida is as good a name as any, and since it's not fully mature you couldn't (or at least I can't) tell really well if it was one of the other ones anyways. Great picture, thanks for sharing.
