Default Red Dacca???

I purchased it from Thailand and I wanted to make sure it's what I think it is . I bought it as a corn and it's grown really well.

Here's a pic.



Leaf red edge




I have googled and am pretty sure it's a red Dacca, red dwarf musa etc. so many names.

But please correct me if I am wrong .

My Red Dacca is much redder on the pstem and leaf midribs. Mine is the tall, maybe the dwarf is not as red at this stage.

A close up of where the leaf meets the petiole would clear that up.
