Musa ornata
Musa ornata or Flowering Banana is a small ornamental banana whose main attraction is its inflorescence, generally pink but varying from white to purple. The flowering lasts all season. The pseudo-trunk is usually not bigger than 2 m, growth rapid. Produces small edible fruit filled with seeds, pink to purple.
It was growing as an understory plant in a garden at Roger's Grove, Belize.

I thought so. They would be fun to grow in a pot.
Pretty bananas!
