Default Re: Are They Dead? I Need Help.

Time for a musa-funeral. Definately dead. Even musa species have limitations.

If the roots were alive, you'd see some white roots too. Here it's all black and the stem is mush and probably attacked by fungus or other pathogens to the point of no return.

If the plant would have been bigger or "killed" in another way, it could come back. The case you're showing is a perfect example of winter exhuastion, when you try to overwinter a plant in a dark and warm room and water frequently in good faith.
Sadly, it happens here every year when I try to overwinter plants inside..

Go to IKEA or Home Depot and buy another fresh plant! :-)
