Re: Reccommend Bananas
Tommy,
If you are open to suggestions for any type that makes good fruit and grows well, there's all kinds that are supposed to be good. I say "supposed to" because I'm only one year into this banana obsession. I've got about 40 banana plants crammed into my small yard, but the biggest ones are only now getting to the size you might expect them to produce a bud.
Based on way too much time spent searching around this site, other internet sources, talking to people, etc., here are several varieties that are repeatedly mentioned as good ones and that you might realistically be able to purchase in the US:
Misi Luki
Dwarf Namwah
FHIA 18
Pisang Klotek / Pisang Ceylan / Mysore (closely related: all Mysore group bananas)
FHIA 1 (Goldfinger)
FHIA 2 (Mona Lisa)
SH 3640
Belle / Pisang Raja (closely related)
Monthan
Cardaba
Dwarf Brazilian
Manzano / Golden Pillow (closely related)
Ice Cream
Praying Hands
Rajapuri
There's probably literally hundreds more that could be good for you, too.
Good luck.
