Hi just wondering if my Musa Basjoo will survive in Maryland zone 7 as the temps are now 30 outside the past week. The leaves all died so I just cut it back to the ground and covered it with topsoil. Will my banana survive the winter? Last year I brought it into the garage but this year I just wanted to keep it simple as possible. Opinions?
