Frank- what gave YOU the idea you could store bananas under your house? I'm also curious what varieties that didn't store well for you.

Zac- I'm in a fairly mild climate that has a week or so of freezes to 24 deg. While I'm leaving many plants standing, I'm planning to lay some in a tarp, cover with woodchips and straw and pull the tarp over it. All this in the shade of a tree. I guess my problem would be that it might not be cold enough.
