I have a Mysore, Jamaican Red, and Gluay Namwah and I'm very excited about that Namwah (thanks Jon).
I need a bigger yard.

I think Goldfinger gets a lot of publicity because a lot of vendors -- esp. established nurseries have it for sale. And there is no doubt that it tastes better than bananas bought at the store. But given that you are in an excellent location for growing bananas and have very limited space, I would not give it such a high priority.
I still haven't been able to identify your house from the aerial photos I have, but I did drive by on the 5-freeway on my way to and from Gardenia last Friday. I waved for good measure, just in case someone was paying attention.
