I havnt been on here for a while, so I apoligize if this is a bit late.

I managed to germinate 2 M inrerans (burmese blue). One of the 3 species of banana ive managed to germinate. THe 2 seem slightly different. One having the narrow leaves you mentioned, and one with a very, VERY slight red tinge where the leaf attatches to the psuedostem.

The red tinged one, has wider leaves. They are bold are molted with black blotches along the leaf stem. THey are small still, so I cant say anything till after the summer, when they get some growth..
