I planted it the same depth that it was in the pot. This week is the first time I have heard of planting a banana deeply.

Though, you are a couple of hundred miles north of me, so yours would have gotten colder even if we had NOT had record breaking cold last winter! -3 is usual in our area, but we got -10! And, we lost a rose that was listed as hardy to zone 2!
