Re: Musa sp. from Sumatra to ID
Either Musa campestris var. limbangensis or Musa campestris var. campestris would be my guess. Markku, will be able to say I'm sure. Nice plant!

Re: Musa sp. from Sumatra to ID
Yes, it's just a guess on my part. How tall is it?
That would be nice if you could get some seeds. I know I too would like to try that one. Last edited by Dean W. : 04-04-2011 at 09:24 PM. Reason: added |

Re: Musa sp. from Sumatra to ID
I am fairly sure that is M. salaccensis.

Re: Musa sp. from Sumatra to ID
I checked on Nasution's and Markku's respective papers on M. salaccensis, and it sure fits the bill. Many thanks.
Dean : I'll try to ask around for seeds |
