Some of the NZ lady finger banana types..all potentially Mysore family from what I understand.many other types varients out there.anyone correct me if I've blundered.just from what multiple eyes and taste buds and varies labeling is summing up to so pretty confident :)
Top; misi luki..very sweet yellow flesh mild berry flavour
Mid; pisangawak,namwah,ducasse.has blue plume on young fruit milder than blue java blue.white flesh creami not so sweet
Bot; pacha nadan,improved auz lady finger chewy white flesh and thicker skin seem to hold/keep better for longer
All very tasty and plants will be on the list 😁

Wee first bunch fattinih from mat before winter namwah Iam lead to believe mmm mmmm
Un maintained clumps takakaka quite inland very surprising producing but could be better with a thin and feed up and mulch..good comfrey plantings around base for potassium feed az it breaks down ideal to trample and mulch over.comes back with eze and it's deep rooted so seems no conflict of interests with surface rooting banana..just observations tasty banana to misiluki like hint of berry nutritionally dense in flavour.
Mexicans are at the border haha..part of the banana growing Combo kit
Rooted Bana grass cuttings and Mexican sunflower will be available in few weeks at workshop.maybe instead of banana.still saucing banana coz I don't think I'll have enf till spring for everyone me and Greg been busy bees. might have to be sucker s at spring workshop some might be keener on bana and mex anyways but we'll see sooner provide a rooted plant and best time is spring for planting with root ball attached even better.but can be babyee inside if aquired in autum just be numbers game if I have enf who's all definitely keen bean.?be exciting to meet everyone local on the buzz :)
