I have one of those aeroponic cutting rooters, an ez-clone. If you leave the cuttings in there too long, like you get busy and forget about them, run the thing nearly out of water and then fill it up with fertilizer water from the greenhouse, you can grow things in there indefinitely. I have brugmansia and hardy sweet pea cuttings in there from mid-summer but they are getting really tall.
I don't know if you could germinate a banana seed in an aerogarden,but I would think you would be able to keep it alive if it did germinate. at least until it got too big. Those things are pretty little aren't they?
