Hello,
I would love to get my dad a Musa Basjoo for his birthday present in May. He lives in Keswick, ON. I would like to know how big they get, should they start in a pot for x amount of months or should be planted right away? How to prepare it for a winter, and where should it be kept? I know you strip the leaves, cover it in mulch, chicken wire and a trap, but can you keep it in the basement? How many months/years does it take to grow bananas? And is there anything else I should know? Would be GREATLY appreciated.
