Sounds like you probably meant to write "Musa velutina X basjoo."

I attempted the M. basjoo X velutina cross this spring, using freshly harvested M. velutina pollen. I went back a week or two ago to check on the hand I pollinated, and all but one finger had either fallen off or has not plumped. One finger looks promising though, and continues to mature, so we'll see.
