| I've heard many people claim that this banana is quite hardy for them but I've never been able to get one through the winter. My winters are quite wet and the plants have just rotted. If your winters aren't too harsh you could probably just cover them with a good layer of mulch. If you are expecting real cold many people make a cage around the trimmed stem/trunk and fill it with straw or leaves. Some even cover the cage with a tarp. Or you can dig up the corm and store in the basement. Think potato storage conditions. Seems to work for me. |
