My dwarf cavindish plants have been killed the last to winters by Frost and or freeze. I have purchased two
78" x 60" x 60" Planthouse Clear Greenhouses from Home
Depot. My Question is how much can I cut back or prune off of my plants before I set the tent over them. I live in North Port Fl. Zone 9a. The banana plants are in three groups two of which i will cover. 7 or 8 plants/group
stalks vary from 2 to 4 feet high. I was told that my plants would not fruit until I had a bunch of seven or more growing. That is why I have not thinned the smaller ones out.
Thanks
