Praying Hands
Monkey Fingers
One mat of SDC's in ground (potted's did fine)
One Mysore (Sorry Mark) :(

Hello Anna,
It is incredible for me that you lost those sorts of bananas under your climate.
On the other hand, however, could you list the bananas that overwintered
successfully, and how, that means with/without waht kind of protection etc.?

thats sad Anna but at least you still have some to grow I'm surprised the Mysore didn't make it I'm told they are some of the toughest plants around even hardier then the bojoo as they can take the heat as well as the cold

I can not open my banana list on my PC for some reason, so I edited the list in my profile.
For protection, I just use lots and lots of blankets. :)

Thanks for the replies everyone!

Pete, I didn't bring the pots in. Just covered them with the blankets. I did finally buy a greenhouse which I plan to use next winter.
