An year ago i planted a Banana plant and now i have 7 or 8 spare healthy rhizomes having a height of 7 or 8 feet. I am not sure whether this a fruiting variety or a ornamental variety but my gut instinct is that this is an ornamental banana. All i know is that variety was supposedly imported from Thailand. I will be removing the suckers from the ground within a day for two. Interested persons can PM me for free collection. It would be difficult for me to ship outside the city as the size of the suckers is huge even after cutting the foliage.

Separate your banana tree suckers and if the original plant have never given fruit then it will give fruit then. The veriety you are talking about gives one or hardly two times fruit then dies out or remain that way i.e not gives fruit. The suckers will give fruit in two months time. (My Experience) If wrong seniors correct me.
