Default Re: What are the Best Dwarf Varieties for Containers for the Midwest? Dwarf Gros Mich

There are hundreds of Dwarf Cavendish. The Double flowers under 5' and produces 60 lb. bunches, and there's also the Parfitt accompanied with all the DPMs. In the tropics Cavendish take about 3.5 months after the bloom to harvest, which might take 4.5 to 5 months in cooler areas, so it's probably not good too far north.
