IHAVE A California Gold that I bought last November from someone moving out and this banana had some flowers.
I tried to save the main corm but broke off while digging but I immediately planted it when I got home. It was thriving nicely until we had that arctic blast come January.
I tried to save my banana by wrapping them with burlap, clear plastics and Christmas lights but after the frost was over when I opened it all the leaves were fried except about 2 square feet of green leaves.
I wanted to cut it down thinking that there's not enough energy to supply the fruits but Joe Real advice me not to.
He said that if I trim all the brown p-stem and expose the green of the p-stem that would be enough to sustain the fruit but I have to be very patient with it.
Right now, I can see that the fruit are getting bigger and very green looking but they are so slow growing.....
The middle of the bunch are growing bigger than the others though.
I am assuming that currently it is growing more roots for a new pup.
The main corm has produced a very healthy pup that is growing wild at this time. Growing very fast. I'll put a pic in my photo gallery.
