What is the smallest banana that has tasty fruit?
As a Northener in zone 5, the bananas would probably have to winter inside. As a small woman in indifferent health, I will NOT! be carrying large pots up my front steps!
Then again, if I had the very dwarf plants, I think I could get them upstairs to winter over and then move them outside in the spring to, hopefully, fruit.
I have a hardy banana in my garden because the foliage is so pretty, but I would love to pick my own banans! And my hardy banana dies back to the root every fall.
