Namwah or Blue Java?

WillowSpirit · 06-28-2021, 10:52 PM

3 banana trees. The bigger 1 I bought in person from a private seller in Hubert NC and the other 2 were shipped from Trusty Farms in Jackson SC. They were all supposed to be blue java, but after much research (and help from this forum) it seems to me that they might all be namwah.

I dont really mind either way but Id like to ask for others opinions again (last time I posted here I just had the 1 from Hubert NC).

I plan on donating some of the future pups and I dont want to be another one of those people that passes off a namwah as a blue java. Should I officially stop calling these blue javas and start calling them namwahs? ��

I created a public photo album that shows pictures of all 3 banana trees. Thank you for your time!

Edited to add: if these are namwahs are they likely to be dwarfs?

I think the only way for sure is when it fruits
Blue Java has prominent 'knuckles'

Just an FYI - it looks like one has to be a Facebook member and logged in to view those links. In the interest of maximum exposure for your pictures going forward, I might suggest considering a different interface which doesn't require membership or log in. I think more people will actually look at pics that are easier to access.

I deleted my Facebook years ago. I was able to see the 1st link, but unable to see the 2nd.

I can tell you…in the 1st link… the top RT pic and bottom LT pic look exactly like my Namwah. :-)
