"Apple, tall" or Brazilian, now called Hawaiian Apple and 2. the
shorter Dwarf Brazilian or Santa Catarina. Neither is related to the AAB "true" Apple banana, popular in Latin America and Asia, see Apple
(true) or Manzano." https://www.ctahr.hawaii.edu/nelsons...nymsHawaii.pdf

with gratitude,
Chie



this is all correct. Brazillian is what Hawaiians call the apple banana. But the true Apple BAnana is the Manzano. Completely different banana and does taste like apple.
