Unknown bananas
 

I bought some banans off Craig's List. I got a good deal I think. I got a number of plants for $20. The owner said they get small green fruit. He also said, they didn't taste that good. I wonder if he harvested them to soon. Here's some pictures.


I know you probally need a picture of the flower before you can judge. I will take some more picture of the plants.

I got a total of seven bananas all big. Now I have to find a place to plant them all. :bananarow:

Re: Unknown bananas
 

Orinoco? It's always a good guess.

Re: Unknown bananas
 

Thanks, Nate, now I have a good lead. :o

Re: Unknown bananas
 

Thats what I would say right off hand, but who knows right now.

Re: Unknown bananas
 

i thought orinoco had a light reddish tint in the middle leaf

Re: Unknown bananas
 

Mine are pretty much all green. On the underside of the midrib they have a pink tint and when they are small they seem to have a pink line around the leaf, but that seems to have mostly gone away when it gets larger. There is no verigation on the leafs even when small.

Re: Unknown bananas
 

lol yes that is what i meant moden :D thanks for the right naming it right and not just " light reddish tint in the middle leaf" :P:P:P:P ok well mine is about 4 feet tall and has a pup with what u just mentioned :D

Re: Unknown bananas

Re: Unknown bananas
 

That's a good observation Fernie. It doesn't seem to have any red. Here's an small Orinoco I had last year.

Re: Unknown bananas
 

My orinoco doesn't have a good leaf on it right now. Maybe in a couple of weeks I can get a good picture of one.

Re: Unknown bananas

Re: Unknown bananas
 

The first and the second don't look like orinoco to me. I have no idea what they might be.

Re: Unknown bananas
 

The 6th one looks like it may be ice cream.
