Yeah, I'd say plant it (though at this point I think you already have). Next year, plant it as soon as you don't have to worry about temps getting too cold. As for the pot....I doubt you need anything much larger than 25 gal. for a DC. And you're just overwintering it in the pot, so you'll be fine with 25 or 45. I mean, hell....I've seen pics of 10+ foot tall ensete's in a 10 gallon pot! I will say, though....if you're keeping it in the pot for fruiting, the bigger the better!
