Default Finally have bananas on the way....

Been awhile since I have been on the site but have still been growing my plants, after 3 years of growing I finally got my plants planted and they have since thrived, got a bud late last year and a couple hands of bananas but they never really developed but this year already have 2 buds and the bananas on the first one look to be developing rather nice...

I have bought plants as blue java and Gros Michel, I lost track of what plants where which but believe these were the supposed Blue Javas but would appreciate it if anyone could give me an ID for them.....

I am not very good with uploading pictures so no clue why they ended up sideways?

Thats great! The photos always upload sideways. If you click on the photo in your gallery, then scroll way down you will se an edit button in small writing. You can rotate the photo with that

Ok so the bud has emerged from the second plant and they are completely different size and shape, the one pictured is pretty huge round and fat where the second is torpedo shaped long and thin (I'll get pics of it soon), so as I was saying I have only bought 2 types of plants and am thinking "hoping" the one pictured is Gros Michel and the other Blue Java "Namwah?

Awesome!
Yeah already figured it wasn't Blue Java, so are you saying is or isn't Tall Namwa?

I believe he was saying its tall namwah.. tall namwah is most often sold as "blue java" by online nurseries. It is not the actual blue java, but is arguably as good or better variety.
