'Gros Michel', also known as 'Guineo Gigante', 'Banano', 'Platano Roatan', 'Pisang Ambon', does not produce well in Florida. It has poor cold tolerance and is susceptible to Panama disease and Sigatoka. It is not recommended for planting in the home landscape.

It would really benefit from greenhouse conditions, but it's fairly tall (listed at 12'-14' in the webebananas directory) and could be tough to accommodate in one.
Fruiting a GM will be quite a challenge for most of us.
