Congrats Rarejem on your new banana shoot! I think the Banana Robusta I gave you is probably Musa basjoo. Actually I had four bananas growing out side last year and, because of my zone denial, I lost half of them. Fortunately I bid the lost plants farewell when I planted them. (I hate it when plant tags become grave markers.) So my yard comes up on the extreme short end of a Banana Farm. This is a picture taken September 2006.
