Apparently, Patupi flowers and fruits in about 6 weeks, one of the shortest cycles out of all Musa, from what I hear. Even if a plant would get tall, as long as it is during the time it can be outside, and gets done with fruiting before hot weather stops, it wouldn't matter. As long as it got no larger than 5 feet before June. Once outside, wouldn't matter if it got 10-15 feet. I just don't know the exact growth pattern of bananas, that's why I need to rely on advice from everyone here.
