I am glad to have joined your organisation.
I am keen to plant a Musa velutina in Castlemaine, Victoria, Australia; Post Code: 3450.
However, most of what I read tells me that they will not succed in a summer v. hot and winter v. frosty place like Castlemaine. However, they come from the Himalayas. I see that you have members in Southern Canada and mid-latitude Europe growing bananas. Do they grow in these places in the out doors?
I would be grateful for your advice.

P.S. It doesn't get below freezing point here, but the frosts can be very severe.
