Welcome to the banana bin.

Are you hoping to get fruit there, or just ornamentals? You can get fruit there, but it's not easy. see here:

Yep, I knew before buying the Birds that they can become really large. But read that they were easier to grow than the smaller varieties.

I wouldn't be against getting my Dwarf Cavendish to fruit, however, learning to keep it alive is my goal this year.
