Nicolas Naranja · 07-20-2013, 03:39 PM

FHIA-3, FHIA-25, Pisang Ceylon at the house. Giant Cavendish, 2 Dwarf Brazillians, 2 Baloys, and 5 FHIA-17 at the farm.

I just crossed the 30 variety threshold.

I just planted a gran nain in the ground from a 5 gallon pot, had a little pup and I left it. I know its August.

No problem you live in Southern CA.

Illia · 08-13-2013, 12:45 AM

A rose banana. Had it for almost a week now, but I've been holding off planting it due to greenhouse design conflicts.

robguz24 · 08-19-2013, 01:27 AM

3rd attempt at Goldfinger. The other 2 I purchased were other types.

venturabananas · 08-19-2013, 08:21 PM

Well Rob, I don't see anything that says it's not a Goldfinger, so maybe you got the right thing this time! Good luck.

brod · 08-19-2013, 08:34 PM

Hey Rob,
It looks just like my Goldfinger TC when it was that size

sunfish · 08-19-2013, 09:35 PM

Goldfinger has thin red border/line on leaves and down the petiole

Thanks! It's hard to see if the photo, but I just checked and there is a thin red line at the edge of the leaves. As far as down the petiole, do you mean the same line on the edge of the leaf continues to the edge of the petiole or do you mean the petiole itself in red in the middle or on the back side like some others?

My SH-3640 has red in the petiole canal but the FHIA-01 did not have any red.

Check the photo gallery, you might find evidence that it should or shouldn't.

Good Luck and hope it is a FHIA-01.

Thanks, and I've seen those GRIN pictures too which helped me rule out that the other 2 supposed GFs weren't. It does seem like the male bud is quite distinctive so if not before, at least I should be able to ID it then.

I also have a "likely" SH-3640 which coconut Chris told me he was told was a Nang Faya. Whatever it is, it's quite different from this possible GF, and it has a less pronounced red line on the leaf edge which is more prominent on the petiole edge but with no red in the petiole canal.

The same line continued down the edge of the petiole,

I do not have goldfinger anymore but here is an old pic

Do you have a photo with some red?

I remember the red outline when the plants were small but I also remember goldfinger being a dark green when it matures. Who knows ,

Great shots, all about the same stage that mine is, and yeah I see that it does look more like the SH-3640. The galleries were sort of helpful, as it's hard to know which were real or not. And from other photos I've seen it does seem like it's totally green when mature. If mine turns out to be an SH-3640 then I won't be too upset. This was a TC that started life at Agristarts, and I don't see it available on their site currently, or know if they have sold TCs of it recently.

After 3 months and two weeks I got my first banana pup out of the plants I got while on vacation on P.R. It was a lot faster than I thought and I still have 5 more growing up fast, nice!

I_GROWER · 08-25-2013, 11:43 AM

Got these from my neighbor , variety unknown (can u identify it?)
Repotted them

Edit: sorry for pic size.

Probably Dwarf Cavendish or Super Dwarf Cavendish by the looks of it. Very short petioles with wide open wings.
