Re: Dwarf Brazilian vs Manzano
I asked Gabe for Manzano, and he gave me Manzano straight from the research center at the University. Gabe has many types of AAB Silk, as seen on his older posts. I believe that he received the majority of his bananas from the Gene Bank.
ITC | Promusa - Mobilizing banana science for sustainable livelihoods Gabe even had the name of the variety of fig. Here is Gabeʻs email to me. FFM= 'Figue Famille' (AAB Silk). Manzano/"True Apple" type. I never fruited it so can't much about it except that it is typical of Silk's to have fruit which remains astringent until very-very ripe, they often need to be practically falling apart before they no longer taste like a green banana, but then they are really great and sweet fruits.
