When we moved into the house, there was a small stand of teeny banana trees. When I inquired as to what type, the guy responded with "You know, the kind you buy at Home Depot, that kind." Um yes. Good info. Thanks. I've asked around about what kind is most frequently sold at Home Depot here in South Florida and I was told Dwarf Cavendish. So I am presenting it to you all in hopes you can identify these lovely little bananas.
None of the trees are taller than 5'. The banana bunches are large, but the bananas aren't. Each fruit is about 4" - 5" long.
