Musella Lasiocarpa Question
I'm located in Fairfax, VA, which is Zone 7a. I've had 2 types of bananas planted in the ground year round - Musa Basjoo and Musella Lasiocarpa. I've had them for 10+ years, and I winter them both the same way - after the first hard freeze of the fall I cut them down to ground level, and apply 5-6 inches of mulch. They come back year after year with plenty of new offshoots, but at some point I'd like to get the Musella Lasiocarpa to flower. How should I treat it to get that to happen? Thanks.
