When your banana gets old, it could droop a little...

All joking aside, I don't think it matters if the plant produces edible (seedless) fruit for you to utilize the leaves in cooking. I used a leaf offa my Ice Cream to wrap a pork shoulder roast in and crock potted it. It was awesome! It did leave clorophyll on the meat, though. You'll have to explain that the green meat is ok to eat! The little plant looks like it will bounce right back. You could put something in front of it to block the wind.
