I am zone 6 and have had musa basjoo's outside for 3 winters. Last year we had 3 days of 4*F. I put a big tomato cage made out of fencing wire around mine. I then put 2 bags cyprus mulch in each cage. This year I will have 3 cages. I moved some pups and gave some away. I wait untill it is going to frost and cut them off and mulch them. I then uncover them here in May.
