Hello from Nashville, I too have a Zebrina. This is my first year with it so hopefully it will survive the winter. I'm pulling it into the sunroom for winter...

Welcome to the forum!!! Nice to see the Shular name!!! I live in Cleveland, which is only about one hour south of you, in case you are not familiar with Cleveland. I, too, have Zebrinus and a few other bananas as well. When you have a chance, hollar at me and tell me more about what you are growing, as well as a little more about yourself. Always great to see another Tennesseean on board!!!
Here is one of my Zebrinas, and a link to my photobucket account of some other bananas and other tropicals in have in my backyard....

Thanks for the reply, Good picture. I am attaching some more of my pictues. The cluster picture is of a group of bananas that is growing on top of the septic tank. They came back in the spring and are growing profusly I guess from the heat of the septic tank. Are the winters there warm enough for your bananas to come back or do you bring them in for the winter? I have a nephew in Dalton Ga. that can leave his bananas out all winter.
I have 2 acres of what I like to think of as a botanical garden. I love to find new plants to try. I have many gardens, topiary, and water gardens. This used to be a rural areaa but they are building 5 story apartments and condos next door. The developers wanted to buy my property but at 76 years old and I have been here 47 years and I don't want to start over with all the plants I have so I will just be a petunia in an onion patch.
You said it was good to see a Shular name. What is you connection with Shular?

First off, I have no connection with the Shular name, but I am a big TN fan and Heath was a great quarterback for them years ago. Hated to see what happened to him professionally. Anyway, some of the bananas that I have stay out year 'round, while others will be dug up and stored either potted in my garage, or stored dry rooted under the house. I have several this year that I will be testing to see how they fare for me outside, so I am still learning and experimenting. Again, great to have you aboard!!!!
