Default Unfamiliar cultivar

I am unable to find ANY information on a cultivar called 'Sum X Cross'. Purchased a corm at UGA's Bamboo Farm & Coastal Garden and would like to know it's characteristics.

It's a very pretty banana, looks a lot like a zebrina, wide leaves, splotched and burgundy on the backside. Fairly cold sensitive when overwintered in a greenhouse. Doesn't like temps below 50 for long periods of time when greenhousing. Keep it a little bit on the warm side and it'll do great for you. I've heard they can get edible fruit, but haven't kept one long enough to find out.
