Hi Erlend,
I checked the fruits of Sikkimensis and found the flesh and seeds were rotten,
that meant they have not been pollinated.　This is the same case as of Musa
Basjoos and in order that they are pollinated, pollen from other stems should
be applied.

Do you think the case of Helen's hybrid is the same? Or can it be self-pollinated?
