I went with Goldfinger but If I were starting my banana grove over it would have went with all dwarfs so in ground winter protection would be easier and the length of the growing year would fit better shorter fruiting height banana varieties.

As many have suggested I should have included a Dwarf Namwah. If I have a winter failure the Namwah will get the first available spot.

I have learned a lot in the last month. I don't think I made bad choices with the Ice Cream, Apple( if it is that) and Goldfinger. It is just maximizing the chance for a plant that fruits and that taste really good.
