Re: Maybe Nam Wah and Blue Java are the same ?
I've noticed the same as Mark here in Hawaii. I've only had 1 harvested bunch on each of my Misi Luki and Ele Ele that was clearly a Tall Namwah. The Tall (TC from mainland) is the biggest plant (and bunch) I've had so far, and the Misi Luki (bought locally as a pup, don't know origin of the mother plant) fruited a couple feet shorter, not as beefy of a plant-fruit tasted the same. DN hasn't fruited yet, but is more stout, just a very thick p-stem for the height so far at maybe 5'. The plant I dug up the pup from was unique in how thick it was & even quite small in my yard was clearly different than the other 2 Namwahs.
None of my namwahs have been as blue as in the 2nd pic. But even today, the blue-green namwah hands I had for sale, people just assumed they were Ice Creams.
