Default Musa Orinoco root hardy in zone 7a?
I have about 8 or so Orinoco, one is about 16 feet with leaves, the others are all about 7 including leaves. I am thinking of testing one in ground over the winter with mulch. Anybody have success doing this in zone 7a? I dont care about the fruit. I just like the looks and growth rate of the Orinoco compared to Basjoo.
