Re: A suitable list of cultivars
@Dan
Viente Cohol seems a nice choice but unluckly it hasn't been avaiable in europe, so far. Maybe i can find some nursery willing to sell me one, outside from EU.
It's pretty strange that while U of Ga is actively reproducing VC, in europe no other nursery started reproducing that aswell. At least for bananas USA and EU have pretty much same species in nurseries.
The idea of a 3 feet pups capable of fruiting before winter is mouth watering indeed, little pups can be overwintered in home with little effort, while a 9' pseudostem can't, and hast to undergo under some level of stress: both the digging and the overwintering are pretty difficoult. BUT, i'm not sure if, after the last frost, i get enough time for it to fruit, weater here takes quite some time before getting hot. It has to be tested, maybe i myst recover bigger pups.
Let me know when you are about to come in my city!
@blownz281: Thank you for your suggestion. Saba seem pretty dangerous outside a forest! Luckily we here don't get anything close to an hurricane, regarding winds. The strongest wind gust of 2011 was 52 miles/hour.
