Default Re: Zone 8b Banana Ornamental ?

Randy, I don't do anything to protect it. Most of my bananas are under the canopy of a massive live oak, so that's it. Last winter it came through just fine, but the 2 before that killed it to the ground both years. So I started out this year with mature plants and I'm way ahead of the game. It looks pretty much like what you see in my gallery so no need to update the pictures!
