I don't believe any of that crap. They predicted an above-average hurricane season in the Atlantic back in June, too. All you need is one minimum temperature to kill the banana back. I wish plants grew off of average temperatures

You can have a frost 2 weeks early and still have above-average temperatures.

The worst part is going to be moving this behemoth. I am going to have to put it in my garden cart and literally pull it half a mile from this house to the new house when I move. I'm going to look like a crazy (crazier?) person.
