I've just found and joined the Forum - after putting my banana to bed yesterday! I put 2 or 3 layers of that insulation material around (see second photo below). Also I mounded some earth at the base of the structure. And I put rice straw around the base of the plant.
Here in the south of S. Korea we get about 3 months of nights at or below zero (seldom worse than minus 5 Celsius). Starting any day now but not yet. Anyway, please look at the photos and tell me what you think:

(the small plant I'll pot up today and take indoors)
Photo 2:
See you in the spring pictures from outdoors photos on webshots (http://outdoors.webshots.com/photo/2566738040102492006iZElsO)
Do you think I should water it at all before the spring? (I could push a hose in at the base).
Thanks in advance!
