I have over wintered bare rooted ever since. The offspring have been with me since the beginning. This banana has been the hardiest I have seen yet. My understanding is that at this variety was one of the few available at that time. I have never had any issues with bugs, fungus, too wet, too dry, rot, or anything else no thanks to me. About to set them out again this year. Every body needs one! Just my two sents.
