My honest opinion, I think it will , fingers crossed . Is it going in the ground or a pot?

Which ever one that will let it bloom fastest (I'll have to dig it up during winter). I have NEVER gotten one to bloom every year I bring it indoors and whither downs and a pup replaces it. Hopefully this won't be like the others.

yeah hopefully not , well In the ground would be my best guess. Mine is only just under a foot and i've got some insane growing to do this summer& next, in order to get it to hopefully flower next fall. lol

Re: Someone is shipping me a 5 ft. dwarf cavendish banana plant, read description...
Hmmm...bringing it indoors shouldnt' make it wilt and have to regrow from a pup. I've been planting naners oudoors during the summer and digging them up/bringing them indoors for years without wilting whatsoever. They do need a lot of light, though. Are they in a south window? Cause that's preferred.
Theoretically, if it doesn't bloom for you while planted outside this summer, you should be able to bring it inside and keep the main plant alive to bloom later in the winter (or next summer). Not entirely sure why your other plants died back during the winter while indoors cause mine do great repotted indoors.
