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!

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.

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
