Default Re: Musa basjoo Tchetchenie

Basjoo are pretty tough however I think the plant surviving -10C means the leaves and the main stalk (pstem) will wilt and dieback but the corn (root structure) will survive and a new plant will emerge when the temps warm up after winter. Its a good looking plant and produces a flower but my understanding is that the fruit is not considered edible.

Bajoo get pretty big and grow quickly. Do a search. There should be a ton of info and photos on this plant.
