Dan I wish I were more of an expert but , bananas fruiting up north are probably as much art as science. First got to the going bananas web site and get yourself on the list for Veinte Cohol. You might not get it for a while but just do it. It is reputedly quick to bloom and produce. I know nothing else about it. I'm (an admitted idiot) growing varieties for fruit, hardiness , height, and cold tolerance. We can always talk more and I hope others will chime in. First thing you should do is check out the "putting bananas to sleep for the winter" thread, read the whole thing. It's one of the greatest post here for northern gardeners and go on from there. That's how I started, Talk soon, Bob
