I've read that Mysore fruits around 15', but the bananas in the vid look like they're fruiting at closer to 8'. Am I seeing that right?

I know plants can vary in size depending on environment, but I guess I didn't realize it could be quite that drastic.

I had very much wanted to grow some of these taller types like Mysore/Pisang Klotek/Pisang Ceylon/Blue Java, but the biggest greenhouse I'll be able to get will be just 15' tall, which I thought would be too short for taller bananas like this (without getting creative and growing them horizontally). Now I'm wondering if it's worth a shot...
