Bananas Brindando Hello All

I just joined Banana's. I'm building a collection of dwarf and other small dessert bananas for container growing. I live in Vista, CA, which is zone 9-10. I have two dwarf cavendish, a dwarf red cuban, and two little starter plants of high color mini and truly tiny. I'm hoping to add to my collection a variegated aeae (rare), and a variagated dwarf cavendish(very rare). Any other suggestions are welcome.

Thank's Tony
I'm currently bidding on what looks to be a full grown Super Dwarf Cavendish corm on the classified listings. I'll look into the Dwarf Namwah and Dwarf Lady Finger.

Thanks. I couldn't agree more. I'd love to grow them all. But but for now my space is limited as well.

Well, as long as they don't grow 20 ft tall. I'll need large potts then. When I move into a house, I can carry them one at a time and put them in the ground.
