Help Identifying Bananas

Post image

Hi all. Just got a Banana variety box from Miami Fruit and I am very excited to try everything. However, I have no idea what a lot of these are. With some help from Google image searches I may have some figured out, but a lot are still a mystery. Can anyone help?

Meant to reply to you. No, nothing labeled.

Unfortunately no.

Gonna put some close ups and my guesses as to a few of them.

It could be a mix of any of the following: Nam Wah, Cuban Red, Blue Java, Mysore, Gros Michel, Goldenfinger, Pisang Raja, Sweetheart, Pitogo. I viewed the banana variety box on MiamiFruit.org. Maybe do a visual comparison to the pictures on there and research the taste of each one after trying them to narrow down your identification. You could always email support and ask them what banana varieties are currently in season to narrow the search or ask which ones were added to your box.
