Bananas.org - View Single Post - Other names for banana cultivars in Brazi??

Hi,

I'm looking for Brazilian alias names for Saba, Ice Cream, Thousand Fingers, Praying Hands and African Rhinohorn. Are they perhaps existing in Brazil under alias names in the Portuguese language?? Anyone does know the alias name for Musa "Rio"? Saba is one BBB cultivar, are there also BBB cultivars in Brazil, one BBB cultivar is typically Saba or Cardaba.

Achim from Achim's Bananenshop told me, that there are so many alias names for the same cultivars.

I know the alias name of Brazilian, it is Prata, and also know the alias name of Orinoco, it is Figo and also know the alias name of Red, it is Banana Roxa!

But there are so few Brazilian forum members although Brazil is one of the largest banana growing countries of all the world. Perhaps lorax from Ecuador or Anestor from Florianópolis from Santa Catarina might answer my question about Portuguese alias names in Brazil.

Best wishes
Joachim
