We get a number of different banana varieties -- you dig the keiki.
Especially successful here (6th, HPP; low elevation and hot) has been Kru, a very nice dessert banana from Papua New Guinea -- lots of sweet, heavy fruit, and quick turn around time between stalks.
Also have Gigante, Ele Ele Maoli, full-size Jamaican Red, full-size Brazilian, and others.
Of course, plenty starts for white pineapple.
