My suggestion would be to grow short bananas--I got a bloom from my Raji Puri at just over 4 ft in stem--it is a very good banana that many consider the best tasting. I grew mine in a container that is only about 10 gal and got 59 fingers. I have another that is even bigger in a container that is a little over 5 gal--it may bloom soon, but just got set back by the cold that froze the leaves even in my shop.
