Default Re: Time to put the bananas to sleep for the Winter

Bigd,

Have you tried banking some bales of hay against some of your orinoco stems?I bet the would help protect them through the winter. Also, I have heard the same response from others who've tried to dig up a fruiting stem - it's too much shock on the plant and the fruiting stalk just withers.
