Re: Musa manni ?
Yes, Musa mannii is quite cold-hardy. I haven't actually tested it here in my zone 7a climate yet, but I have a friend in zone 8a that says that it comes back in February each year.

Re: Musa manni ?
I have a small manii that I will be putting out in the ground this spring... Sounds like it will be hardy here, so we will have to wait and see.
