Eventually there will be descriptions and pictures of each banana, but for now a list will have to suffice.

This plant is probably Apple, Nino, or Orito.  I am not sure yet how to identify this plant.  Now flowering

My best guess is that this plant is the Brazilian banana, but that is not positive.   Have a look at the plant and the bananas.

Ice Cream (Musa ?)

Have a look at the plant.

Gran Naine (Musa ?)

Super Dwarf (Musa ?)

This plant lives up to it's name, it is short.  Most descriptions of this plant point out it's height and neglects the flavor of the fruit.  I am not expecting the fruits to be very flavorful. 

Hua Moa (Musa ?)

Sumatrana (Musa Sumatrana)

Goldfinger (Musa ?)

Unidentified Banana from Beth (Musa ?)

Unidentified Banana from Delee (Musa ?)
