Default Re: Small fruits of banana

You might be interested in growing a Namwah type, depending on your conditions. Namwah varieties are extremely cold hardy for an edible. They do have tartness, but they are also very sweet. The amount of tartness depends on the ripeness. I like them a lot. The fruit are larger than Pisang Mas/Sucrier though and they are oftentimes corky in the center. From the wiki:
