Default Great story-what type is this banana plant

Ok so I take my 3 youngest kids to one of the parks near my house today and me my 8 year and 11 year old start talking about growing banana's again and how they want to get a few different kinds. Then my 8 year old starts telling me this story of about 2 years ago him and his brother would go ride bikes with one of their friends(that moved away) in the neighborhood next to ours. One day they are walking through the power lines easement and they found some banana trees and picked some and ate them. I was like why didn't you tell me this before and he said he forgot... he said they didn't taste too good I guess because they weren't ripe enough or something. Well I ask them to take me to them and show me what he is talking about. Sure enough banana city was within 10 minutes walking distance from my house.

They are actually on the back side of someone's property so i went and knocked on their door. They do not like banana's and have idea what kind it is and all they use it for is a place to throw all their yard waste into. there is branches and grass and leaves all thrown in the middle of the banana plants you can't even get in to the middle of them as the stuff is piled up high in there.

They told me I could take as much as I want banana's and plants...

So what kind are they and when should I pick the banana's? They are so tall!!

I took a picture of a pup as well, should I dig that up or let it get a little bigger?
