Default Please help me identify these two bananas

Hello

I have three banana plants at my house - one is certainly Musa basjoo, so I am not showing it here. But these other two? Help please.

Banana #1



and it's leaf - there is some very light purple streaking which doesn't show up well in the photo.



Banana #2, it's leaf, and it's stem/pup. There is no sign of any purple streaking in this one.





Any help at all would be appreciated

I would say the second plant is most likely a Cavendish. I'm not certain about the first plant. Can you try to get a better shot of the purple streaks in the leaves?

I took another pic but it really is not visible. It is very faint streaks, about 1/4 inch wide and 4 inches long each. It's more noticeable on some leaves and undetectable on some others.

The big guy appears to be a run-of-the-mill Cavendish, yes from looking at pics of them online. I can't wait to plant it in the ground in the spring and watch it REALLY take off.
