Try growing helen's hybrid if you want something extra hardy. You can get seeds of these from Rarepalmseeds.com

This is a sweet desert type banana that's seeded. It's a cross of musa sikimensis and a sweet desert banana. It should be hardy to at least zone 7b/8a.

For zone 9b, you can try growing saba, orinoco, and raja puri.
