Manzano does OK for me when it gets cool -- 30's and 40's F during winter. Not as tough as Dwarf Namwah and the other Pisang Awak varieties, but much better than Cavendish and the AA genome ones. And I'd choose to eat a good Manzano over a good Dwarf Namwah every time. But I'd also choose to eat a good Mysore subgroup banana over a Manzano every time!
