Hello out there in banana land. I am completely new to posting and chatting and this end of technology, so please forgive me if I goof. I am also fairly new to growing bananas. I live in N.W. Arkansas and have a small hoop house for a greenhouse that is heated by a wood stove. I have about 20 banana plants (mostly pups) and am totally addicted to them. My ?'s are: has anyone gotten edible fruit from a plant in a container? and #2: do the banana plants need to be pollinated or have a pollinator? I am thankful for finding this site and have read many threads(?). I am interested in learning all I can and I definately want to expand. But I also want fruit. I have several double mahoi and dwarf cavendish and several plants that I have no idea what they are. I bought them from the local hardware store and they do not resemble the picture on the tag at all. I was told they are ornimentals. As soon as I can figure out how to post pics of the plants, maybe someone out there can help me identify them. Any help is greatly appreciated! Glad to meet y'all!!
