Re: New to site
welcome Diehard, you've come to the right source. All kinds of info and great people. Search for mulching or overwintering and you'll be swamped with info. As a sidenote heavy mulch and a high, dry area should suffice. And/or wrap the pstem with christmas lights and lite em up on the coldest of nights.

Re: New to site
Welcome to the site! You've come to the right place to get information about bananas. Like others have said, there are TONS of threads/info in the forums already about overwintering. Just use the 'Search' function in the blue bar near the top and search for 'overwintering' or something to that effect. In zone 9 you probably won't have to do much. Enjoy the site!

Re: New to site
Thanks, I bought my bannana trees @ Belmont Nursary. This will be my first winter. I also see them around town. I'm just wondering because their not that big about 4 feet maybe. Thanks for reply. I believe I found a very good site hear.
