Re: Outside Basjoo - when did your corms start growing this year?
Usually I start looking for my bananas poking their tops out of the mulch in March, but I got lucky this year and most of my bananas never even froze back, they just lost their leaves. I don't protect them over the winter either, I just let the dead leaves insulate the pseudostems until March. I bet most people didn't expect conditions like that in a state adjacent to Canada. I'm expecting quite a few banana flowers this year!
