Default GM banana plant wanted FL

I want to get a banana plant for my folks in Florida who love plants in general. I was thinking of getting a Gros Michel for them due to the history but have had a hard time finding plants for sale and in stock. Is this a good one to get and does anyone have some for sale?

I got one from a board member years ago and it survived a few winters in my zone 8a wrapped. Then had a colder winter and died.

The Gros Michel and also the dwarf are common bananas in Florida and you should be able to find them at one of the box stores or a local nursery and it'll be less expensive than what it costs just to ship a plant through the mail. If there's any difficulties then contact a tc lab and they should be able to give you the names of the local distributors. The tc labs are also members so you might try messaging them here.

If you're still looking for a GM I've got a few pups.

I have a few gros michel highgate pups if you are still looking. I’m in coastal Georgia and they have survived the coldest and longest winter we’ve had since I’ve lived here.
