Default Is it a Musa ICe Cream Bananas

It was sold to me as an Musa sp. "Ice Cream" but it has a hint of pint at the leaves and at the trunk.

Is it a realy ICE CREAM Banana?

From my experience, Ice creams have a reddish-looking vein down the middle of the new leaves, and on the edges, but as each leaf ages that will go away and the leaves get that torn-n-frayed look.

If you had photos, it'd be easier to respond.
