You may be able to search some online nurseries in Hawaii and look under the synonym "Bluefields" which is where I got the one surviving one I have.

Hi Bob, I contacted the thai seller you'r speaking about and asked about the quick shipping by EMS, that's his reply:
Dear Rick,
Thank you for interesting our products.
The shipping cost of EMS (Express Mail Service) is $50 for a Gros
Miche Banana plant.
It will take time approximately 2 weeks to manage with several
processes as the laws and regulations of European Customs, before go
to obtain Phytosanitary Certificate for you. After the procedures
completed, The parcel will be packed and mailed out by EMS
immediately. EMS usually take 7 days to reach your hands.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Thank you.
Best regards,
Surachart
To me 40$ for the plant + 50$ for the shipping + custom taxes seems a little too expensive , am I wrong ?
I'll try to look on internet for hawaian nursey...
Thanks
Bye
