I think the only banana I lost outright was my potted M. laterita. Everything else in the ground survived, even though a few were killed back to the corms (such as Dw. Cavendish, SDC, Dw. Red, and Hua Moa). My 'California Gold' and several others (Raja Puri, Ice Cream) were all wrapped with frost cloth and had pretty good pstem survival. One note is that I did not protect my 'Orinoco' at all and it died back almost to the ground. They are easily in the 8-10' range already though.
