Charlie sure doesn't look like my Dwarf Cavendish. However, the Dwarf Cavendish group has quite a variety of cultivars.

He does look like a picture of the Super Dwarf Cavendish on www.webebananas.com

The SD Cavendish gets to be about 3 feet tall. Having Charlie in a pot will reduce his size as compared with having him in a garden in Florida.

How old is Charlie? If he is tissue cultured, he could take several years to reach full height.

Perhaps Charlie has a size complex and you haven't been cuddling him and reassuring him enough.
