During the winter storm in Dallas my little greenhouse of plastic with a electric fan in it dropped to 17F most of the night for two nights due to power outage and record cold in Dallas. To my surprise my Dwarf Namwah against all odds came back and now looks like this!

I am focusing on Dwarf Namwah for its cold hardiness and awesome fruit and then my Sweetheart due to its great looking leaves. Also cold hardy but not close to the Dwarf Namwah.
Cant recommend this banana enough. I have tried tons of other edible bananas but keep coming back to these two.

I just wanted to share this.
