Pinwheel New Kid on the Block
Hi All,

Just checking in to say hello. This looks like a great place to hang out! I live in Southwestern Michigan and have a Musa Basjoo new this season and a Ensete (I think) that I got in Florida in January. It did not get very tall and no pups. Looks more like a beefy canna. Says it is not the invasive type. Shucks. I did not catch that when I bought it. And I have a dwarf cavendish that was supposed to be a Musa Basjoo last season but I was able to keep it going in the house all winter. I need to put my Basjoo to sleep so I am wandering around posts to see what is the proper way. I am hooked on the tropicals. I LOVE EE's and that is what got me started. Has NO idea about cold hardy bananas but when I found out about them I HAD to have one.

It is really cold here. We have had a lousy summer and now we had a freeze last night. My poor basjoo is just hanging there looking so pathetic. I need help fast because the cold is not letting up for the rest of the week and it may SNOW by friday. Yikes!!! Diane
