The middle one looks like Dwarf Namwah based on the shape of the leaf.

Ventura haha

Yug if thats true then they are pretty cold hardy. A guy from a colder zone 8 gave them to me. As far as I knew Dwarf Namwah would not survive in coastal zone 8b NC where I am. He is coastal as well but father north by 4hrs. I will cover the other two and bring one inside to see what happens.

I think you'd be hard pressed to find a more cold tolerant edible banana than Dwarf Namwah. I don't have your cold, but when it gets down into the 30's at my house, Dwarf Namwah is the least affected of all the ones I have.
