I ordered from TyTy nursery a few years back when it was still okay to ship to California. I paid for the Musa Texas Star. I planted it, waited for a couple of years, and it never grew beyond 4 ft tall, and finally it bloomed, and I was frustrated to find out that what they sent me was an ornamental banana with inedible tiny fruits. It was promptly disposed of into my compost heap.
