Anyone in this area totally hit up the Botanical Gardens (and hit me up too!)!

Bryan,
So they still have those other bananas labeled as basjoo, huh? That is what we thought it was when I worked there. When dividing it one time I got a pup off of it and ended up bringing it to TX with me. It eventually flowered and set fruit...edible fruit. Just by the color of the flower I knew it wasn't basjoo. Gabe identified it for me as most likely being 'Orinoco' (see my photo gallery). I have contacted some folks I know at MBG about it but I guess they haven't corrected it.
