Probably a var of Musa Ornata
For instance, I recently got a "Royal Purple" Musa Ornata.

Re: Just purchased a "Royal Red" nana plant from a local house, but cannot find any info?
I planted this Musa 'Royal Red' out this Spring as a 4 inch plant. I don't think that the fruit is edible, as it is an ornamental hybrid, probably of ornata.
I don't know how hardy it is, so I plan on digging and storing this one for the Winter. |
