Banana leaf
This might be a dumb question, but here it goes. When the leaf/steam breaks or needs to be cut, do you cut it all the way down to where it come out of the ground? Is there a special way of doing it?

Re: Banana leaf
Cutting the leaf where it meets the pseudostem(trunk) would be the best.

Re: Banana leaf
Does it hurt the plant to cut off about half the length of the leaves. I have a tree that gets really trashed from strong winds. So, I have clipped off the longer leaves...to prevent the winds from damaging the tree.

Re: Banana leaf
It won't hurt it, but banana leaves tear naturally so that they can with stand wind and not break or topple the plant(unless the wind is really strong).
