Need an ID
So this is interesting to me...I received this banana as a pup from my father-in-law who does not know what it is.
As you can see the leaves have red in them, but the adult plant my father-in-law has does not have red in the leaves...any thoughts on what this banana is and why mine has red in the leaves and his does not? |

Re: Need an ID
Some varieties have red in their leaves when they are small, and lose it when they mature.

Re: Need an ID
Ditto what pitangadiego said. I would venture a guess based on one of my own plants that looks similar - Brazilian.
