Ice cream with Tom Thumb
I have just got a couple of bananas from ebay (uk) the large one is Musa Icecream the other is one called tom thumb.
I have not heard of Tom Thumb and I was hoping one of the experts on here could help. To me it looks like a regular D cav. I couldn't resist it even though I have no room left in my polytunnel it was a bargin at $10 with a tin pot too !

Re: Ice cream with Tom Thumb
Never heard the name used, but do you have a shot of the whole plant?

Re: Ice cream with Tom Thumb
oh, I see, they are in the same pot. I thought the little one was a sucker of the bigger one, that clears things up. Ya it looks like it could either be SDC or Little Prince perhaps.

Re: Ice cream with Tom Thumb
looks like a little prince that someone took liberty with and changed the name....there's a guy at the farmers market that calls Pineapple heirloom tomatoes "big stripeys" instead and gets people to buy them because they're different....I think something similar has happened to you.
