Default Re: East african highland bananas

I should have referred to them as landrace bananas really, not plantains which are a particular type. I have a few pacific plantains, but the only true plantain I have is dwarf french. I did have a quick read of the article, nice work. I was curious, did any of your ornata crosses pan out do you know? also the two varieties I was looking at were noted to have beige/pink flesh, did you come across this trait? Its interesting you think their cooking plantains would make an acceptable dessert banana.
