Which varieties are you looking for? As the most popular do not have any seeds (Siam Ruby, no seeds available yet and Ensete Maurelli seedless).

Rarepalms. Or try The Banana Tree. Those are reputable. Mine sprouted.

No that is the Ensete Maurelli, it is propogated via splitting the stem in quaters, after waking it back to the ground.
