Weird. Could these be some kind of Gro Michelle? The peel reminds me of a store bought banana. Thick peel, breaks easily, banana strings remain on banana, tastes somewhat like a store bought banana with hint of plaintain. Also pretty big. Thoughts? Thanks

I ripped out the clump, but there was a pipe problem beneath maybe caused by the corm. So no more bananas going there 😥😥😭😭







Also my other namwa clump is putting out a bloom for the first time :rollerban anadone:ar achutenanner:.......

Any suggestions on how to protect the bunch/leaves if we get a frost? Don’t Want to lose the bunch if I can help it!!!

So I was just watching a tour of goingbananas tasting tree (Don and Katie) made by John Kohlor (learn organic gardening at growing your greens) and one of the varieties I was like, that looks like my mystery banana! What is it? So he goes up to the tag. Is said SH 3640. I actually looks like mine. Identical. Even to the fact that they were not filled. I also noticed that Hectors SH's also have ridges. Any thoughts?
