Being a bonsai enthusiast actually, I am surprised to see a Bonsai banana since it doesn't really lend itself to the art very well. The leaves are too large and it grows from a corm - most difficult to control since bonsai involves trimming the central tap root. I have around 20 bonsai trees, but never considered Bananas to be one that I would try.
Mame is the smallest form of bonsai. I suppose that by keeping the corm confined it would limit growth, but that's a guess.
