We have been growing banana trees for about 7 years now. Our friends gave us some small shoots to start out with, we passed on our babies to family and friends, and we now have a plantation of beautiful trees. The only problem is the winter storage of the trees. We have been cutting off the leaves, digging the trees up, wrapping in burlap, and storing in a dark place like under the house for winter. These are the instructions our friends gave us and have done well, but we have alot of trees now, and its alot of trouble digging up all the trees and storage space is becoming an issue too. We live in zone 7. I wanted to see if anyone knows what type trees these are, and if they need to be dug up every winter? I have about 40 trees to dig up and I'm looking for alternative solutions. Thanks.... Brian
