Default Re: Overwintering Container Grown Bananas

Thanks everyone for the replies! They are definitely helpful. I have enough banana plants right now, that bringing them in for the winter would probably be my easiest and cheapest bet still. I'd rather not cut them back severely for the winter if possible, though. Is it possible to put them into dormancy or keep them growing slowly over the winter--like you would for a houseplant you bring out for the summer?
