Default Re: How are everyone's banana plants this winter??

My musa basjoos are starting to push as I removed the protective barrels stuffed with leaves 6 days ago.

I tried protecting them up above 6ft, but they seemed to die back to the 4-5ft range which is still very good as they are firm pillars with lots of energy ready to explode once it warms up.
