Hi

I am in the hunt for some tall bananas, fast growers preferred. I plant for foliage primarily but if I ever get fruits or flowers that's great too.

I have:

-Musa basjoo (1)
-Chinese yellow (4)
-Musa Velutina (6)
-Tall orinoco (2) (1 is 6 feet tall)
-Zebrinas (3)
-Dwarf cavendish (1)

If someone could recommend some monster bananas, I want to get a "WOW!" from my neighbors.
I would prefer tall growing, fast growing and that stores well in my basement for the winter as I am in Atlanta zone 7. Or that can stay in ground like my Basjoo, Chinese yellows and tall Orinocos.

I will chose from one of these M.O.'s, any others you recommend?
