Re: Cool winter storage of banana plants?
If you have room leave them in the pots. Don't water much if any, they will be dormant and not need any water. If the pups are on the mother I would leave them there .

Re: Your favorite tasting bananas?
My SDC have never produced bananas. You should try Raja Puri. They are short would do good in a green house. The bananas are good too. Once they get established they produce every year.
