Re: winterizing ornamental banana plant
Your best bet for survival this winter will be to dig it up and bring it indoors over the winter. If it is a basjoo then next winter it should be able to be left outside with some good protection. When you bring it in you can pot it in a fast draining soil and keep it in a south facing window, watering lightly only when the soil has dried several inches down. You can also wait until the leaves start going brow chop them all off and keep it in a cool dark place like the basement until spring.
Check out the cold growing forum for more specifics and feel free to ask questions. Everyone is very helpful here.
