Ice Cream Banana & Cavendish dwaf Banana
I have visited a number of website to order one each of the above. Each site gives me a different maximum height. I live around Orlando, FL. Does anyone have the above bananas and if so how big do they get.
My space is large but not extremly large. I have one banana that gets about 12 to 15 ft and I keep it prunned back - not too many pups. I've recently removed a banana which never pruduced anything in 4 years. I've order the Ice Cream and and Cavendish Dwaft. The Ice Cream sounds like it gets about as big as the one I have. Does anyone have one around Orlando. I'm in Tavares, FL - 35 miles NW of Orlando. kitnor |

Re: Ice Cream Banana & Cavendish dwaf Banana
Ice creams get huge - mine has stems of 15ft before the leaves and is over the house roof. My dc have stems of 4-5ft and dwarf orinoco are about the same height - very nice and manageable.

Re: Ice Cream Banana & Cavendish dwaf Banana
My fruiting Ice Cream is 10 feet. I have two larger ones(13') that should "shoot" (flower) soon. I hope this helps.
