If you overwinter them outdoors you can try to save the Pseudostem by covering it with straw, pine needles (anything that will keep them dry) and them cover that with burlap and/or other stuff to cover it, before the first killing frost. Or you can wait after the killing frost and cut off the mushy part of pseudostem and mulch it heavily. Hope this helps! God Bless! BananaLee
