Even though Raja Puri is not as hardy as my other bananas, the most important thing is that its trunk has survived the arctic blast, a little setback in terms of blooming, it will surely miss it this year after the extreme once every ten year cold conditions, and so for our other ordinary winters, it will surely survive and bear fruit. It is the best tasting amongst the cooking type according to my taste buds, that is why I plant it. It can make it in most years when it comes to fruiting. One other problem though is that Raja Puri is prone to choking.
