Mine doesn't look Cavendish either. But I'd already assumed either TT or SDC since the supplier is in FL so I was not surprised to be right. I honestly have no idea why they didn't play up the potential for fruiting and instead labeled them them foliage "mood" plants; with proper marketing they'd have sold out to collectors at full price I'd think. Or been snapped up by Floridians who can no longer send citrus plants to friends up north. So buy some for Yankee buds! But do tell them them might produce bananas.
