Under optimal conditions (not mine, but well cared for in the tropics), Dwarf Cavendish will outproduce DB both in number of fruit per bunch and cycle time. But again, you can buy Cavendish fruit in the store any day. Personally, I like the ones from the store better than the home grown DC I grow, which have very strong flavors, but ones that I don't like, like an overripe store-bought fruit, but get that flavor when they are barely ripe.

DB averages a couple feet taller than DC in my yard.

Alright... I've decided on my second third choice . My first was the VC - didn't work over winter. Sooo, Dwarf Brazillian, it is!

Anyone know someone that has a pup or two (or 3) that are in need of a move-in ready home?? Will pay.
Thanks,
Lawler
