Default Re: Hill Banana ("Pahari kela") from India

This should make it clear:

Musa (AAB) group-Virupakshi Syn. Mala vazhai.
The hill banana is a speciality of Tamil Nadu. These are perennial bananas of high quality. There are two main types: Sirumalai and Virupakshi. Fruits of Sirumalai have better taste compared with Virupakshi. The average bunch weight is about 12 kg.
