Banana seeker
I am interested in growing exotic bananas. I live in zone 9. If you have some information about delicious bananas that grow well in this zone please let me know.

Re: Banana seeker
For year-round outdoor growing, zone 10b is about it for growing a good tasting dessert banana (banana in U.S.) or cooking banana (plantain in U.S.). In zone 9b you can sort of get away with growing Orinoco or the expensive variant "California Gold" but really ... not that much better than store bought bananas.
IF you are willing to overwinter your bananas in a greenhouse or somehow dormant in your garage, then the possibilities are larger. But be warned that bananas won't always flower and fruit at acceptable times, consequently on average half of your harvests will be thrown away if you opt for "dormant storage". Best wishes in your endeavors, and welcome to the 'org!

Re: Banana seeker
Welcome to the forum. I only try to grow banana plants because I like the big floppy leaves. Good luck.
