I know I have Musa nagensium because they were a gift from Markku Hakkinen, he collected them in the wild and I have pictures of the plants. Much of the information regarding these species that is still available is sometimes inaccurate and in need of revision. Also, the seed descriptions are rather poor on that website, simply stating size still leaves a wide range of possible variations of a seed. Remember, information from seed dealer website is often very erroneous as they dont do research, and also websites like David's, although very helpful and a great resource, still do not provide end-all answers.
