OK, I had time yesterday to take pictures of my neighbor's mat of unidentified bananas. She doesn't know what they are. Someone gave her one a few years ago and they have flourished. There are currently 5 bunches hanging and she recently harvested a 6th. The fruits have very thin peels and, to me, taste very much like Manzano -- i.e., a strong apple flavor without other fruity overtones.
Looking at these plants more closely after Gabe's comments, I'm pretty sure they are not Manzano, based on the lack of red on the petiole. Perhaps Pisang Awak (Namwah), but I hope Gabe or another expert will chime in.
The lighting conditions in late afternoon when I took the pictures weren't great and as a result the picture of flowers isn't fabulous, but I hope there is enough detail for someone to narrow down the subgroup or determine the cultivar. All the plants have fruited at right around 10' of p-stem.
Any input is would be appreciated.
