I agree with Randy4ut. I live in Canada Zone 6 and I do not see any purpose in working my butt off for a couple
of years, just to get a few fruit, which I can buy for only pennies/lb in the store. What intrigues me is the
tropical lushness of their foliage and I like to combine that with other plants like palms or Cannas for display
purposes.

Now if I lived in Florida or southern California, I would probably also try for fruiting, just as a challenge. But
not for monetary value of the fruit. Up here the challenge is just to get the growth of the foliage going.
