Don't expect it to fruit for you in Athens, GA unless you plan on digging it up and bringing it inside when the weather turns cold. Sorry, but your growing season is like mine.... WAY TOO SHORT!!!!
I am sure you will enjoy your banana even if it is just for ornamental value. BTW, do you have a picture of it?
Best of luck from SE TN!!!
