Default Need ID on new purchase

Hi

I just got this one at my local grocery store (Publix). The tag is of no help. I have a slight idea but would like opinions. It was $13, I got it because the trunk had some size to it. It seemed it was roughly handled but it will recover quickly with good care.

So what is it?

Thanks a lot

Patrick

That's what I thought too, a cavendish of some sort. I appreciate the help.

Thanks again
