Default Need Advice on My New Plantation

Or at least that's what I'm calling my 10' x 10' bed

I'm trying to decide exactly how many plants I can/should reasonable squeeze in here without long-term deleterious effects to the plants.

If 3 feet is the minimum distance between plants I could fit 9 plants in this space in 3 rows of 3. Does this seem ridiculously crowded? If so what would be a more reasonable configuration? 5 in a configuration like you rolled a five on a die? The bananas I'm thinking of for this space are,

Manzano
Praying Hands
Kru
Orninoco
Mysore
Goldfinger
Itinerans v. Gigantea
Dwarf Namwah

Cheers-

Andy
