Default Re: Ensete Ventricosum "Maurelli" trouble.

That's exactly what I have covering the bananas.

Unfortunately, today they are looking even worse. It's over 100 degrees right now. My cannas are also taking a beating. I think I'll just cut my losses and plant the bananas late afternoon, when there is a break in the heat. If they die, I've learned a valuable lesson.

On that note, can anyone recommend a heat tolerant banana for zone 9?
