I don't know much about bananas other than I love eating them and my wife makes some very nice banana bread LOL. Is dwarf namwah a fav or yours? What's the differences other than prices and one ripens faster? This does help me in looking at different species and I say thanks for that. I just want to narrow down to the cold hardiest and something nice and edible rather relying on stuff from the store :-(
