Default What varieties to get to stimulate school kids

We are starting to put together a summer collection for school field trips. We want as many different kinds as possible which will interest the kids, like:
the tallest, shortest, most colorful leaves, biggest fruit (will grow on in greenhouse for next year probably as no fruit this year), quickest to bear (any chance for this year from small plant - tours go on till December), most unusual whatever. These plants will go into a greenhouse to overwinter for next year.
Any suggestions? we are looking at for fruit size for example, Africana Rhino Horn, plus some others which MIGHT be worthwhile - feedback on these would be welcome as well:
African Rhino Musa hybr.
Common - Dwarf Musa hybr.
Tall Superplantain Musa hybr.
Antigua Finger Rose
Dwarf Orinoco
French-type Dominican Red
Many thanks,
Peter
