I'm expecting my nana leaves to get shredded but for most of the plants to survive--does that seem right?
One specific question: today would be the day my African Red started blooming, and the first hand is showing. So excited, but my mom suggested that I wrap it and I'm worried about that making it top-heavy. Not to mention that I wouldn't know how to do that and make it hurricane-proof.
Any suggestions?

i am right here with you, in Montgomery just north of Houston. My plants including bananas have been through this before, there will probably be a lot of rain wide spread flooding, some wind, our nanners will have shredded leaves. Probably not a hole lot you can do except continue to pray we all come out ok. Beautiful plant by the way, that is 1 variety i don't have, maybe we can trade a pup sometime.
i hope your african red makes it unharmed,
Darla
