From my understanding is they will stop progressing until spring and then finish ripening? or will they go bad?
These are the first bananas I have ever gotten and would like to eat the bananas I get.

I live in San Diego in USDA Zone 10b - 35°F to 40°F. in the SDSU area.

Should I worry about losing them, they are in the ground, facing west, south west. They are next to our house. I'm wondering if they heat from the house will keep them warm enough or if I need to worry about the occasional frost we get in the winters here.

Any suggestions would be helpful.
thanks
