ID please - 2 Years in the Blue Java not do Blue 🙀

katklug · 08-30-2021, 05:34 AM

bought a blue java from Amazona Organics in Germany
Finally she flowered and voila zero blue
Definitely no blue java
Anyone know what it might be ???

Now best part, they say they don’t have even one mature one ever - they just breed them. How would they even know what they are selling ???
Obviously super upset
Waited so long 😭

Its most likely a namwah. Most blue Java sold online are namwah. The good new is its a great variety. If you post some pics of the flower and fruit you should be able to get a positive ID

It would be almost a shame to grow namwah in her climate

I mean, are there perhaps better/more interesting choices if you're in zone 11A? Sure.

But I think Namwah is still worthy of growing. They grow really quickly and make nice tasting, sweet and dense fruit. It seems that most people who have had both prefer them to Blue Java, in fact.

I added pictures on my profile
Such a ****ing shame
Specially now knowing that they never had an adult one fruit -
She will check with people that bought some and imported to Brazil
But might not even be the same batch ...
Not amused ��

Probably Orinoco if the fingers don’t turn blue. It’s not a Namwa.

Looks like an Orinoco type to me

New update
So I provided her with the picture of the baby banana that I got sent and the adult one (link above)
She just claims it can’t be the wrong one and Am just to “ shut up my mouth”
Her literal words.
She then said they are easy to tell apart:
Apple banana (only other one they had) bluish stem and tinted leaves
And java (bluish stem) ——> My plant had not a single leaf !
Crazy crazy
Never order anything there !!!
Two years wasted
I already had apple banana as they are available on the island
