Default Canada where to get seeds

Hi all,
Is there anywhere in Ontario that sells seeds online or in store. I am unable to find any banana plants or seeds anywhere. They all ship from China when I look online and germination success is very low if it happens at all.
Currently I have a musa sikkimensis and I’m trying to germinate musa balbisiana which I have had no luck yet (it’s onlh been 3 weeks) both I got the seeds online.
My plants are grown in pots since it is far to cold here. Zone 4a.

I found my first banana, a basjoo out front a grocery store about 8 years ago. They seem to pop up when you aren't looking. I have seen ensete ventricosum seeds at HD on the seed racks. What area are you in? Dwarf cavendish(an edible type) are very common around here in nurseries.

I’m in the ottawa valley. So far I have only seen the ensete ventricosum seeds around here but that was years ago now. I’ve been keeping a look out for different varieties but there dosnt seem to be any around here.
