Bluete + unreife Fruechte:
Es gibt hier 3 Cavendish cultivars :
" 1. 'Balady’, the Dwarf Cavendish which was said to have existed since long in Jordan.
The cultivar is progressively being replaced by the following two, but is
frequently used as a border row, protecting the field from weeds and wind ;The
latter effect can be questioned since the plant is so short. The much taller but still
vigorous AAB ‘Mysore’, with its regular bunches, attractive fruits and
resistance/tolerance to many diseases, looks a serious replacement candidate here, but
its resistance to winter conditions should be tested;
2.-‘Paz’, a taller sport not unlike ‘Grand nain’, and of which the origin could not be traced.
The name could mean “a kind of eagle” but the present reporter remembers having
noticed the same name for a Cavendish in western Mediterranean, where ‘paz’ could be
Spanish (‘peace’);
3..-‘Grande naine’, pronounced ‘Grandnain’ as in many American countries, is the well
known commercial cultivar. It was rather recently introduced (from Israël
among others) and is rapidly becoming important through in vitro propagation and with
the help of private nurseries. Somaclonal variation was observed in at least one case:
a slightly taller plant resembling the ‘Williams’ "
