Re: Winter time
[quote=Brentp;300979]Well first year for growing in the ground and wintering. Orinoco , built a cage around 4 feet tall with flexible rubber chicken wire/fencing , cut down main plant to about a foot at an angle for drainage, pups almost to the ground, covered with compost manure mix, mulch, then straw, and wrapped each one with heavy mil black plastic and tarped. Did this a month ago before first frost, now paranoid about colder temps��☹️☹️, wiki banana says zone 7 so hopefully being 6 I can pull it off! I'm uploading a few pics of the start of wrapping them up, I'll update later with final product, been too cold and I've been too busy too take final pics of their winter blanket.
Still haven't figured out the pic thing, posted some under my user name let me know your thoughts!! Thanks!!
