Not sure what you mean with "true" dwarf, but dwarf Namwah can get up to 10'+ (compared to tall Namwah 15' +) at flowering.
Dwarf Brazilian has fruited at around 6.5' for me ( no pups available as of June 27th 2016), the "Temple banana" fruits at around 7' to 8' (pups available).
All of my plants are in the ground with little to no protection during our mild winters, so height is not really an issue for me other than the occasional strong wind in late fall.
