Default Re: Gros Michel Cold Tolerance?

What state are you in? Do you know what growing zone? I rarely get frosts here, but it would be difficult for me to grow it because we have cold, wet winters. If you get frosts every winter where you live, I don't think it would be feasible to grow it in the ground. If you want to grow it in a pot, go for a shorter form of Gros Michel like 'Cocos.'
