Default Re: Gran Nain?

It is in the Cavendish subgroup. If I had to guess, it is either a very healthy and happy Dwarf Cavendish (which could explain the large bud and bunch) or a Grand Nain. The main distinguishing feature between those two is the height of the plant. How tall is this one to the top of the pseudostem, i.e., where the bunch emerged? If it's in the 4-6' range, then it is almost certainly Dwarf Cavendish, but if it's 6-9', then it is most likely Grand Nain.
