I have a Musa basjoo that I kept alive in the house all winter. It has a HUGE head start on the rest of mine. It is currenly working on it's 7th leaf and it has been warmer than normal here since before memorial day (with the exception of a couple of days at the end of June). it is averageing about a leaf a week and the weather shows scattered storms and highs 87-92 for the next week and a half at least. it is about 6 feet tall now and the trunk is about 6 inches thick. We got a bunch of rain last night and it looked like the newest leaf had opened almost overnight. Has anyone gotten a banana plant to flower this far north (MI)? If not what is the lowest zone that someone has?

thank you,

Andy
