If you want a really tiny one, try "mini" super dwarf cavendish. I have one fruiting right now and it's about 4 feet tall in a 12" ceramic pot. I'll have other dwarf varieties such as williams hybrid, dwarf namwah, dwarf red and others available in spring. Please keep me in mind! You can also fruit larger standards in pots, such as the ice cream I have fruiting now, but they have to be cut off in the fall to help keep them a manageable size and they have to grown in large pots.
