It was also sold as grand naine, but that doesn't mean anything to me around here. I really don't want to jinx myself too much talking about it flowing but would be nice to have a certain id if it did.

From what I can see and by reading your detailed description I would say it's Grand Nain, more advanced members might see something different.

The only reason why I wanted to share an image of GN flowers is because I like to share photos, I wasn't trying to say you're not growing GN.

I don't have pics of the male flower only female, banana flowers represent a small part of the puzzle, you've seen photos of my plants and even if they don't look exactly the same as yours it's only because their growing in different microclimates. If you have any doubt the only way to know if it's the real deal is to wait until it's has fruit.
