here are a few more pictures
another plant has a flag leaf so 3 of the 4 in this planting are flowering

wow, way up north! some kind of dwarf, silk variety?

Re: any guesses ?
 

I'd have to imagine whoever is taking care of that area is at least a tropical enthusiast if not an outright banana enthusiast. The fast that they are flowering suggests they are well cared for so one could probably find out who the 'caretaker' is and they would probably have a good idea of what they have there. They clearly need to be part of this forum:)

Did you happen to notice if these ever ripened? Or by any chance ever find out what they are likely to be?

Re: any guesses ?
 

I meant to go back and take more pictures but didn't get around to it
I drive by it often enough... a couple weeks ago they pulled them out and then about a week later they pulled out everything in that bed
not sure if they filled in

my namwa bunch hadn't filled in yet so I brought it inside
update on that soon.....

What camera did you use to take those pictures?

Re: any guesses ?
 

It's a Pisang Awak, and appears to be a non-dwarf type.

*More likely it's a Bluggoe.*

thanx. never thot about looking at the spot where the bananas were attached to the stem.
