Re: Time to put the bananas to sleep for the Winter

I would suggest using a pipe heating cable to wrap around the stem (set the thermostat to 40 degrees.)

BIGD,

Be glad you're not growing SABA! I had some blow over last year in hurricane Wilma and nearly broke my back righting them. :0493:

I couldn't imaging hauling off all the pseudostems every year.
