An unwelcome New Year's gift!
A Happy New Year to you all!
It was an unwelcome New Year's gift! A severe cold wave attacked us since Dec.30 and is still staying over here, and the lowest temperature of this morning was -3C/26.6F, resuling in considerable damages on leaves of my bananas despite, I hope, it was not serious damages as the pseudostem and the petioles still keep green. |

Re: An unwelcome New Year's gift!
You will be fine. All that matters is the p-stem and the corm. Leaves grow back.

Re: An unwelcome New Year's gift!
just wait a few months and you see nothing of the frost damage anymore!
it's great that musas are growing so fast.
