Banana Tree 'Dwarf Cavendish'?

Brandon, FL(Zone 9a)

I also have a banana tree that I think is a 'dwarf cavendish', but I am not 100 percent sure. If anybody could confirm this, it would be appreciated. Thanks.

It does resemble the 'Cavendish' Banana as a juvenile. But several other Bananas look similar when they are young.

The best way to know for sure is to grow it out and see the habit of the plant and form of the fruit.

The 'Dwarf Cavendish' will flower & fruit at less than 10 ft. tall.

I will re-post when it flowers and fruits. Thanks for the information.

You're very welcome!

In you're area it may help to provide a bed of mulch around the plant for protection against cold weather.
