Hi,

Dwarf Red is a well regarded variety and also quite hard to find. There is a nursery in Florida I recently purchased a FHIA-02 Mona Lisa from and I was very impressed with the quality of the shipping and the health and size of the plant. It's called Just Fruits and Exotics. I've only had one experience with them, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. They sell the Dwarf Red, but it appears they are sold out at the moment. I would recommend emailing them to see if you can get on a waitlist and how long they expect their next shipment to be. The website for them is:https://justfruitsandexotics.com/sho...Banana%20Trees

There is also Goin' Bananas, but they shut down their mail order business. I'm not sure if it's possible, but they are still taking appointments and emails. You may be able to email them and see if they have any recommendations. On rare occasion, you can find a hobby grower or enthusiast selling rare cultivars on Etsy or Ebay. I hope this helps some!
