LOL...yeah, that was EXACTLY my thought!

Well, if it's a DWARF cavendish, it won't get to 10'. From everything I've seen, read and heard, they get anywhere from 6' to maybe 8' max. If it's in a pot, consider it will add another foot to the overall height (depending on the pot, obviously). If your greenhouse is 10' tall, you shouldn't have a problem. As for leaf spread, probably around 4'-6' for the full diameter of the plant.
