Comments The name implies that this is the "normal" form of a variable species.  Musa ornata gives the impression of being a highly polymorphic species with many cultivars listed in nurserymen's catalogues.  The apparent variation is largely illusory and due to Musa ornata's tendency to hybridise readily and not to inherent variation.
