![]() I have a photo of when I imported this variety many ,many years ago from India with a phyto certificate but I don't have the time to look for it now.
After my research was done, I knew this would be a great one! This is from a source ... Quote:

![]() Amazing growth in just under a year!!
![]() I wonder if this is the same as the one a grower from Puerto Rico was referring to as 'Chumpo' But that one was described as being more big plantain-like bananas |

In any case, I just looked up Chini Champa on the Wiki and it doesn't match the description of this one at all so its not the same. The wiki doesn't have any pics of the fruit yet, OP you should post some when it fruits! ![]() |
