I think most varieties will do ok for you. Bananas really don't like strong sun anyway. ... Thick growing banana mats makes their own shade and shade each other and young pups during the day. ... My bananas get afternoon shade from near by trees.

... An Orinoco should do great for you without a lot of work. The fruit can be eaten cook or sweet out of hand.
