Isn't it paradisicia (spelling)? Or something like that.

Unless it's the Helen's Hybrid, I've seen that described as sikkimensis x in which case it's chini champa.

It will be a natural hybrid and not some guy doing his thing with a paintbrush, so it could be anything. Hope it works out for you. I'm hoping to get the full house of sikkimensis varieties, so that one is on my list.

Additional: just had a look on banana tree and the musa x sikkimensis is Dajeeling Giant. It's a natural hybrid, but no-one knows with what, it's bigger than the usual sort. I tried a 100 from banana tree recently and they weren't very good, not one came up. Hope yours are better.

Got some more from somewhere else, fingers crossed.

Re: Musa x sikkimensis
 

Musa sikkimensis x Musa 'Chini-Champa' = Musa 'Helen's Hybrid'
Musa sikkimensis x Musa 'Raja Puri' = Musa 'Hajaray Hybrid'

I doubt it will be a different cross as these are the most popular and only one of few acceptable edible varieties. I'm not sure about inedible.
Good luck.
