Re: Banana ID Pls.!
To me it looks like an Ensete. Maybe E. glaucum?

Re: Banana ID Pls.!
Now that I look at the photo and the plant in the video, I would have to say Ensete superbum as well. But $249.99 sounds overpriced....

Re: Banana ID Pls.!
Yep superbum, grow your own from seed at a fraction of the price. That's probably two years growth from seed.
